So, I have the whole joint to myself…
Hey, there, everyone.
I'm James, writing from Brasilia (probably the city with the most f*-up weather in the world, but I'll get to that in a minute).
I'll be standing in for Jon while he enjoys his existential holiday at sunny Ibiza.
I don't have much to say right now, so I'll just throw in a couple of random thoughts, ok?
-Technology hates me. No, really. Last week, Jon asks me if I can manage the blog for him while he's away. "Of course!", I say. So, the next morning, without a warning or any kind of sign (yeah, because where would be the fun in *that*?), my computer crashes. For the second time this month. The damn thing won't even turn on. And I promised to take care of Jon's place.
"Ho, hum".
-The weather here is acting up again. It's usually very sunny and hot in Brasilia, the dry kind of hot. A couple of days ago, we reached the hottest day of the year so far, with the temperature looming over 34∞, and the umidity of the air at pathetic 13%. It's like trying to breathe solid air or something.
But, yesterday, rain started to fall. Hard. And cold.
It's getting to the point where you can't leave the house without a small suitcase, containing clothing for every season.
Anyway, enough bitching.
I should start to think of funny things to say, or I'll scare away all of Jon's audience.

Oh, God, Jon is so screwed...

Hmm…
wonder if your screwed weather over there is part of the same f****d up weather pattern that’s causing our screwed weather over here…
I’ts quite fun these days in London, spotting the mixture of seasonal outfits that people choose for the day on the tube/trains a.m.
Currently there are women in full wintry gear, i.e big warm coats and those new knee length boots.
AND people still in little crop tops and trousers.revealing peirced navels.

Oh well Pete, at least they’re not revealing their pierced nipples.
That’d almost be worth travelling on the tube for though…

Hey, Pete, Jon was telling me about your troubles with that heatwave a few weeks ago. He tells me that there were peple passing out on the street and everything.
Scary.
And, Rufus, thanks, mate!

Hi James.
and apologies for being so rude as not to have said hi earlier….
woz in Greece myself during the heatwave, nice ‘n’cool there, ‘n’ the only way we found out about it was spotting someone on the beach reading an english tabloid with the headlines “Britain runs out of Lager”…
Can’t imagine what the heatwave did to the nipple peircings..
