Every year i promise to myself that i am going to embrace Summer and every year that lasts for the first few days of a heatwave and then i#m back to whining about it being too hot, how the car seats are burning my legs and i wish all those buzzy things flying around my head can bugger off but this year i vowed it would be different.
Life's too short to hate 3 months of it every year i said and yadd yadda yadda but day 5 of the UK heatwave with Temperatures hitting 30C and i'm back to bugger this, hurry up Autumn.
To make it worse the Thunderstorms we had been warned about never made it up to the UK and stayed in France to rain on their Olympics which is annoying because not only do i love a good thunderstorm but it tends to freshen things up for the next few days so thanks for nothing Mother Nature.
On top of that i keep hearing 'We Built This City', a 1985 song which won it a spot on VH1's '50 Most Awesomely Bad Songs Ever' list which was a lament against the closure of live music clubs so it says here and generally whenever i hear a song i haven't heard for years over and over again in a short space of time i take it as a sign that the Cosmos is trying to tell me something but a City built of Rock N Roll?
Obviously a definition of Rock N Roll is needed and according to Wikipedia it is: 'A genre of popular music that evolved in the United States during the late 1950s and early 1960s' which is very cool because who wouldn't want to live in a City built around the songs of Buddy Holly, Little Richard, Danny and the Juniors, Eddie Cochran and Chuck Berry, with Peggy Sue Street, Tutti Friti Avenue, The Hop Boulevard and Maybelline Road where the Johnny B Goode Metrocentre proudly stands.
Obviously the Universe doesn't know anything about the long drawn out process of British planning applications so i think i will let this one pass and hope that the next message it sends me is not only a better song but one which wouldn't involve more red tape than a Chinese parade.

“We’re going to come after the people in the media who lied about American citizens, who helped Joe Biden rig presidential elections,” said Trump aide Kash Patel.
Hannity. ‘You’re not going to be a dictator, are you?’
Trump. ‘No, no, no, other than day one’
I know you are not a professional journalist and you have never been very good at actually finding out things first but this is extremely poor even for you, and that is a very low bar already.
