Phew What a Scorcher!

It was very nearly a perfect day... I filled the paddling pool, fired up the BBQ and cracked open a beer whilst a Spitfire thundered directly over my house.

Then...

Still, better being in your own environment than a pub for these little disappointments.

Put your clothes in a bag and go naked. You may get a carriage to yourself!

They'll probably wonder where the smurf came from.

Hmm they're talking about a hose pipe ban in the North west,

You have to feel sorry for them really. The place has just dried out after all the flooding, some fruitbat of a taxi driver goes postal with a gun, then they have a hosepipe ban. You couldn't make it up!

Thunderstorms in Scotland.

Serves the ****ers right for supporting Germany!

30 degrees here in sunny London

I'm sooooo looking forward to a packed tube tomorrow morning in my suit.

At least when it rains, I don't have to water the garden every evening

Amen !

Hmm they're talking about a hose pipe ban in the North west, It pisses down for 10 months of the year, then we have 4 dry weeks and its bloody water rationing

I like the warm weather as long as I'm near a bar and poolside .....

Yep! If we get a ban here, I can kiss all my hard work earlier this year goodbye

I don't like the warm weather even with a bar and pool nearby. Roll on Autumn

28 degrees indoors even with every door and window open in the house

I must be the only one wating for this heatwave to end.

My outside thermometer says 100 degrees F



(it's mounted on a stone wall, so undoubtedly reads higher than the air temperature. Nevertheless, it's very hot !)

For some reason the lyrics to a song by Dennis Leary came to mind, "I walk around in the summertime saying "How about this heat?""

This was not meant for you. The thought came to me yesterday when I heard some people outside talking.

Dual inside/outside thermometer here.

Inside 28° C.
Outside 48° C (OK the sensor was in direct sunlight when I looked, now down to 43.5)
