22nd June - Today's News: RIP Big Man
Back from Essan. No ticks, not too many midges, but I did get sunburnt!
Sadly, whilst I was away, the news broke that Clarence Clemons, "the biggest man you ever saw" and the greatest rock sax player ever, passed away. A massive loss to music. And Springsteen's concerts will never, ever be the same again.

Tropical storm Beatriz weakens on leaving Mexico coast
Wildfire kills two forest rangers in Florida whilst elsewhere crews make progress vs Arizona fires but more blazes likely until summer rains finally come.
North Dakota's fourth largest city faces flood evacuations
China braces for tropical storm amid floods
In Australia, it's a snow go area: Great Western Highway closed as winds and cold front cause chaos
Causes of melting tropical glaciers over past 10,000 years identified
Multiple ocean stresses threaten 'globally significant' marine extinctions, experts claim
