mackerel skies and mares tails make tall ships carry low sails.

We're cooler than previous days at 29C, pass the cold water it's just about bearable! 

Yes we are in need of rain 42.4C on our weather station but looks like rain in the next 24 hours we hope and cooler for the weekend 24C.

Keep cool folks,chores done very this am and now inside.

Way too hot in the sun, feel like joining Callum in his paddling pool!

Too hot in the house too, we have several fans going.  While we were away we were very  glad of the air con in the van.  

Much cooler day today and got some gardening done. Hope it rains tomorrow.

Down to 15C this morning and raining at last.

Yesterday was 24 here about 8am humidity around 80% felt cooler but stickier! Thursday we had 38 😟

This morning it's raining quietly heavily but nice, garden desperate for it. It's 17 humidity 75%. Feels much warmer.

I think most of the problem is that hot days occur so suddenly that we have difficulty coping with them.   We have recently spent 6 weeks in France.  Arrived May 21 to much rain and chilly conditions. This lasted for over two weeks, then suddenly the skies cleared and it was sunny and searingly hot.  So uncomfortable that one planned every move so as to have shade available.
