What are you all up to

Is it something to do with getting old but both Margaret and I are finding this very hot weather difficult to deal with. At least we have the luxury of not doing anything should we wish!

Yes DavidK we are finding the heat difficult to deal with as well. We didn't used to get weather this hot years ago. We have had 33 degrees this afternoon. We used get those sort of temperatures in Greece and Portugal not in the UK. It is hopefully getting cooler as we week goes on.

 Nellie….what on earth is buffering??

Probably best not to ask Kj.

 Nellie - Plas Brondanw is quite small and typical of Clough-Ellis the garden is more architecturally set out. House a bit more interesting if you like contemporary art. If you do find yourself there then the nearby and accessible Glaslyn Osprey watch area is only 2.5 miles away.

Nice cool morning with some rain occasionally so a slow start to the day but it brightened up this afternoon into a pleasant day, not too hot here on the coast of West Wales. Bike riding today. Home tomorrow. Enjoyed the CL and the brief sojourn.

It should of course read "guttering", but my kindle has a mind of its own sometimes, Kjell. The tiny type format used in this reply box, and a fat finger syndrome doesn't help, either.😁

Glad you didn't get wet, WN, and were able to fit in a good home ride. Thanks for the information on the property and that about the Ospreys too. They are still there at the moment but it won't be long before they depart.

After early morning rain the day slowly brightened up and we had a fine warm afternoon. Yet another visit to the dentist this morning, and perhaps a call in tomorrow as I am having a problem with my new plate! I did get the car washed before lunch a d some more weeding done before the guy turned up to service the gas boiler. It could do with a new pump, but all being well that will be replaced under our boiler insurance policy. We will just have to keep our fingers crossed and wait and to hear what the outcome is.

Clearly people around the country having very different weather to us lot "down south". Apparently hottest  day of the year in Cambridge, nearly 35 degrees! Still very warm in MK but we do have a nice breeze which hopefully will cool us down. It needs to as it was 28.5 degrees in the bedroom a couple of hours ago!

We got up to 29c here, but that is very hot. 

Just warming up with a barmy 23C

Here in Bristol it only got to about 23c, but quite humid, even with quite a strong breeze. I’m minded of the time 2 years ago we stayed on the Norfolk Broads site when it got up to 40c. We were stuck on site sat in the shade with our feet in bowls of water, it was just too hot to do anything. Still, it’s looking like normal service (rain) is set to return, just in time for our next trip away 🙁
