Here's to the weekend  :yiamas:

Maarm:
Can you arrange for another one beginning of September please?  :papa:

HiFi:
Will be interesting - no temperatures anywhere near that forecast for Kef - but I guess it can change.....

HiFi:
Indeed the heatwave never came to Kef (35 isn't an August heatwave).
This has to one of the coolest Kef summers ever (not complaining). By coolest I mean the temperatures (currently barely making 30) rather than the number of people wearing 8 euro Ray Bans.

Bell:
My Raybans were 7 euros  :bleh:
