Or is it just the British "I will complain, no matter which way you change things". 
I was wondering, where you were.  | | | | |
We don't like "extremes"; it goes with the weather as well as with politics.

As well as the flagstones, I have hosed down the closed shutters on the windows as they were boiling.. my attempts to get this house cooled down by bed time is like beating the sea back with a big stick.
The heat warnings are in place until at least Wednesday. Any hint of when it is likely to break?

We have two inflatable kiddie pools and both deflated and leaked recently, which might make a bit of a mess in the living room  | | | | |
I envy the lucky people who have a nice fountain with ice-cool running water from the mountains right next to their front door! You know who you are! | | The following 4 users would like to thank McTAVGE for this useful post: | |

Great! We have a layer of cloud cover now; like a wooly blanket to keep all that warmth in for the night.. argh, but no cloud cover through out the day to give some relief from the heat of the sun.
