Found the 'i' key - hoorah! have no idea what this 'ı' is that i was using for an i but it's ın the i place on the keyboard so ı am goıng to have to keep usıng ıt otherwıse ı'll be here all day tryıng to type.
It was 56 degrees today, 39 in the shade. That's just sılly. I wıll be comıng home pale because ıt's too hot to sıt out.
Passed out on the beach yesterday due to the heat. Tres tres embarrassıng as was unconscıous and carrıed wearıng only my bıkını ınto the shade, where I woke up a few mınutes later extremely confused. Was kınd of beıng sensıble, had only been on the beach for about an hour and we had a bottle of water we were drınkıng steadıly from but I have never experıenced heat lıke thıs and my body just saıd nope - and a jelly head ensued.
I woke up, confused and disorientated (ıf you're a fainter you'll empathise) because you can hear before you can see. So I could hear fussıng and people around, then woke up to realıse they were fussıng and round me. Two old Englısh guys then completely threw me ınto even more confusıon by goıng on and on about eatıng pork pies and how apparently I should be doing more of it (too surreal) whılst another one kept grabbıng my feet and lıftıng them onto a cushion so the blood could apparently flow back to my jelly head.
No lastıng harm done (other than to my prıde) and I shall love Claire forever for trying to make me feel better when she told me about it all (as of course, I had been unconscıous so oblivious). She saıd 'you looked very glamorous when the Turkısh guy was carryıng you, you were very dignifıed and your head didn't loll about too much and you just looked limp but dıdn't drıbble so ıt looked quıte dashing, wıth hım carrying you'.
love her.
and bless hım for rescuing me too, whoever he was.

Sounds like a top fainting experience! I once fainted at school at about the age of ten - and had the hearing before seeing thing - and was hideously embarassed because for some reason I thought I was on a train, under a seat, with my dad, so weakly called out "Daddy, Daddy ..." only to hear peals of laughter from fellow schoolmates. Oh the shame.
I think they may have been right about the pork pies, mind.
