Oh come on NSR! No thread about our heatwave yet? Didn't you know it's meant to be the hottest day of the decade? You elderly folk need to remember to drink plenty of liquids and seek shade at all times . Are you enjoying this lovely weather? As my house is right next to a farm I can't open my windows during the day due to flies which will drive me mad therefore I am sweating just sitting in my living room! Popping to Argos later to get a few fans and will be looking into fitted window fly screens...

Should have installed aircon in that nice new build of yours.

I was thinking about that yesterday, ahhh heins sight eh? I bet it would have cost a lot to have integrated A/C though. Hopefully by next year I will have all my windows fitted with fly screens which means at least I can get a draft blowing through.
I have been in Spain for the last week and a half, it's been mid 30's every day one day in direct sun it was over 60 degrees - we have been staying in lol.
Feel sorry for those stuck on the Coastbound M2 and M20 motorways. Both have 'incidents' (although the M20 looked nasty, car went into the back of a low-loader and destroyed the front half). Took me an hour and a half to get back from Dartford to Gillingham.
Just made a trip into town to get a tower fan. Stepping out of an air conditioned car felt like stepping out of an aeroplane at a hot foreign airport! Reminded me exactly of that holiday feeling. 35 degrees C in Gloucester.
On leaving the ship at 0933, it was 27 deg.
On the N104 skirting Paris, it touched 39 at one point.
Was still 37.5 near Limoges at 1735 when I arrived.
NO fruit: no strawberries, no raspberries, no wild strawberries.
Been too hot for therm according to my neighbour. She hasn't any either...but the blackcurrants, which I LOATHE, are loaded.
