The 15th of August looms closer, the countryside is deserted and wet under sudden showers that do nothing to lower the temperature, but only increase humidity.
And in the last two days we’ve been struck by a number of minor but painful catastrophes, so sorry if I am not updating the blog with “proper content”.

Please be assured that we are all fine, and nothing serious is going on.
It’s just that all our schedules and plans and things have been scrambled for good.

Hold on out there, we will hold on in here.
