There must be someway out of here
Said the golfer to the chef
There must be some brain contusion
Which made me go quite deaf
But I can see the water tower
With my unblind eye
Taste buds are returning
The breeze begins to cry

Fantastic clouds over Lowestoft this evening. Almost looks like Van Gogh painted it just for us to enjoy.
Because of the exceptionally hot weather we are experiencing in the UK this summer, we have taken to eating dinner in the garden.
The vegetarian chilli was so very hot
It really was a top culinary hotpot
The chef was so very proud
When it created a localised cloud
Which floated over bean and cheese
Driven by a gentle offshore breeze.

Have you any idea as to how hard it is to find a word that rhymes with Meusli
I did try to incorporate the pasta variant, fusilli
But eventually, I discounted it as being far too twisty and twirly
Swiss, much like rock, works exceptionally well with roll
But doggerel, much like a road bridge, does take its toll
In retrospect, I had more success and poetic joy with 'Bircher'
Which at least shares assonance, if not rhyme, with a hairy canine 'lurcher'
Partial water change days in the tropical aquarium come and go but today was the first time Syd hasn't added boiling water to the tap water to bring it above the minimum required 23 degrees C.
Syd Carp, leading British aquarist and tropical 'fish fancier', was astounded😱
The filter was pretty badly clogged up but after a thorough clean is now running fast and clear.
The Rainbow fish from the Amazon Basin are growing and colouring up nicely. They seem to thrive in the hotter ambient temperatures we are experiencing in the UK at the moment. My last Corydoras catfish is hanging in there even though it is happier at lower water temperatures.
