Again no evening DJ visit to The Hampton Arms last night due to the place being very quiet (so what has happened to DJ Flipside?). I just hope it will be back to normal next Sunday.

Good Night

In Canterbury Again

Another sweaty day in which i completed three visits in Maidstone and Canterbury, which i where i am right now enjoying a pint of beer in a Spoons pub.

The temperature hit the thirties today ,with sunshine in the morning and humid cloudiness in the afternoon. I recorded 34 degrees C on my mobile app here in Maidstone today.

It is now getting a bit breezy but i suspect it will be another humid night.

I put the music app on the laptop into random mode last night. The juxtapositions of the genres clashing against each other was quite engaging and amazing. Sometimes such clashes can be really invigorating and mind expanding.

Pipe

I know i should be dong reports now but man i feel i just want to take in the cool night air outside and smoke my pipe.
