I think your big mistake there was the "bare feet" in the first place. Were you not familiar enough with your folks' house to know already how the bricks heat up?

a lovely big second hand book shop ... is BURNING DOWN.
A very bad thing™. Did it have assistance in this or was it entirely the weather + glass windows or similar?

i am very familiar with this house - i grew up here! and i've never known the bricks to be that hot. i've walked on them in bare feet many times before, without the slightest probs!

Did it have assistance in this or was it entirely the weather + glass windows or similar? I don't know yet. I hope it wasn't deliberately lit.

Poor you. *hugs* We have real winter in here, with snow.

I really hope it cools down in there and your leg gets better .

No! Not a book store. That brakes my cold bitter heart.

Snow! How glorious! I'd love me some snow! You should take a picture to show me!

It's a bit cooler today, but all humid and tropical, which is very unusual for Melbourne. Bloody summer.

Your heart is cold and bitter????? I don't believe it for a second! ;D

I have a flu now because of this snow XD I can send you snow? ;) Postman is WTF? when the mail is all wet.

Well here isn't much snow. I going to Lapland soon and there I can take loads of snowy pics for you

Good thing that, it is coming down. It was in our news that in Australia is really really really hot.

It was in our news that in Australia is really really really hot. Really????! LOL! It was extreme and nasty weather. That heatwave seems to be over now, just back to normal summer heat. And hopefully that will be it for extreme heat this summer - I'm not sure I could bear any more 40°+ days.

I hope you get over your flu soon. Perhaps send me some snow or take some snowwy pics when you're in Lapland. D'you know, my mum's nickname in our family is "Snow" - because when she was a kid, she had snow white hair! ;D
