Nina's Blog - Wednesday 13th August 2025

Wednesday 13th August 2025, 12:52

It's already 30 C here in Broadgate Park hall of residence, expected to peak at 31 C at 16:00.

I delivered my car to Tesla in West Bridgford just before 08:00 and walked about 7.5 km back to my digs wearing my favourite long skirt. It's a two layer wraparound quite good for warmish to coolish weather and this morning it was just right. But it's a bit too much for this afternoon so when I go out for a walk this afternoon I'll wear something much skimpier.

Here's the outfit

After that trek and the delightfully interrupted sleep I felt rather tired so I took a nap which was interrupted by Tesla asking for clarification of what faults had occurred and for review and acceptance of new, and ever higher, cost estimates.

Eventually I felt sufficiently rested to feel like going for another walk so I headed by a circuitous route through the Nottingham Uni. campus and Highfields Park to the Lakeside Gallery and café. I didn't feel in the mood for art appreciation and anyway by the time I got there it was getting close to the 16:00 closing time.

In the café at the Lakeside Gallery. WiFi not working.

Great view of the boating lake

but whoever designed the building didn't consider solar gain; there is no overhang, no awnings, no external blinds. The whole wall is glass and is only double glazed.

Having a cheese and chive scone and a middling mocha. Not a patch on the one I had in the Pillory.

This sort of weather makes one really appreciate broad leafed trees with broad canopies.

I'm dressed in pretty much my lightest outfit green silk (?) top, unlined white miniskirt. The heat makes me feel sexy.

More scenery and selfies later.
