Frappuccino

Aldi was selling Frappuccino for 99p, so I could not resist.  I wish I have a blender at home to make it into a frozen Frappuccino.  James did not understand why we would touch something like that, but I have no shame to admit I consume junk food, and coffee, ie caffine is pure medicinal for me.

Air Conditioning Seeking - Phoenix

I have honed my air conditioning seeking skills since young age.  To continue our cool shelter seeking adventure, we want to Phoenix, they are well air conditioned, we are very please.  We have given them a lot of our customs in exchange.  We just need to brave ourselves to find our way home.

City Break - Leicester

We took the heat wave opportunity to have a city break in town, at a hotel with air conditioning.  We checked in before the official check in time.  They were so kind to give us free ice, and we made very good use of their air conditioning and their water.  We also have some curry for dinner.  It was well worth it, for the cost of a new portable air conditioning, we could have stayed at an air conditioned hotel for 10 days.

Portable Heat Pumps

In additional to "it's time to move to Scotland", we debate the merit of a portable heat pump every year.

The central theme is, discounting the running cost, as it would be run on solar, the initial outlay for this comfort seems excessive.  And more importantly, we must be able to use it for heating in winter also, otherwise it would be less useful.

I kind of regret not buying the ones from WY Cameras when they closed down.

Confucianism is Feudalism

In the late Bronze age, all the cultures started to write down their tales, aka religions, the East Asians are writing down their Rites, which if you read much about it, it is just plain feudalism and classism.  And Confucius was resurrecting the Rites of Zhou.

If you are from a class that read and write, you are supposed to follow the social order as layout in the ancient text, because only by obeying your lord, and stay in your station, the society will have order.  And if you cannot read and write, you are a savage anyway.

And after thousand of years of promoting being subservient, and casting out those who don't, you wonder why East Asians are so... subdued.  

Fish Pizzas

I was surveying what pizzas people wanted to eat, two of them specifically mentioned fish.  Is it a thing? 

Do they mean anchovy?  Which I remember having when I was in Italy and it was awful.

MAG Farmyard Party - Day 3

I planned to wake up early to take down the tent before clocking in for my shift.  I woke up at 4 am and saw the sunrise, but I wasn't ready to get up, so I went back to bed.

I overestimated how fast I could take down my tiny tent, so I clocked in a little late.  And my last shift is also traffic management, so watching bikes goes and be a lollipop lady for the morning.

We had some lunch buffet before I rode home.  I am glad I have ticked Farmyard Party off.
