Wow! Isn't there some kind of an anomally? My former husband came to UK several years ago in summer, and the wheather was mild...
Well, we have the same situation in here. And our city has damba (weir?...) (it's often flooded), we're used to it allready...It can get quite hot here sometimes but it often ends in thunder storms. I hate hot weather.
I read that if you open the loft hatch in your house the hot air will rise up so I might try that.
intend to dive into our 'almost big enough for an adult if they are desperate and cannot afford a real pool '
Count yourself lucky. I was so desperate to cool down that I cleaned out the plastic box I use for recycling and filled it with cold water and put my feet in there.
Nobody ever tells us to go home because of the heatwave!!
I have just got back from town as I had to see the doctor and it was sweltering.
I saw a clip of a man who filled a green wheelie bin with water and then climbed in it!!!
