Lovely here in Wiltshire for most of the day - shame I've been stuck in doors grouting.

No wind today, and has been a bit of sunshine. Going out to lunch with my husband later, so hope it keeps fine so we can eat outside :-)

. If it rains it's all his fault, as it's his birthday today!

Yeh! Heat wave here, going to be 17Â°C. I'm going to sunbathe :-)

Thanks, we had a nice meal - before I went off to work. It did rain a bit, enough to stop us sitting outside but not enough to spoil our fun. My husband then went off windsurfing - so he had a good day.

That would be about it! And that is only now when the summers are hotter, it used to that 13Â°C was about as good as it got! In the north wand west it can be a lot warmer though, low twenties perhaps.
But it is very misleading because the sun is very hot (clean air) and really it is too hot for me to sunbathe today but I think it is only 15Â°C in the shade.

Is that because you've aclimatised??

One of my collegues is from Iran, when she arrived in Denmark she was told (mistakenly) that it was a usual lovely summer day. It was 17 degrees and raining!!!Even then (14 years ago) summers weren't that cold!

When we holiday with the rellies in Cyprus - they're still wearing woollies when it's 25 degrees. They don't get into their summer gear until at least 35 degrees.

Well, I'm sure that I have aclimatised (and gained a few kilos which helps in the winter) but it was actually a lot colder then! I arrived in 1983 and if you go here http://www.vedur.is/loftslag/loftslag/fra1800/hitafar/ and look at Figure (Mynd) 4 you can see the average summer temperature for StykishÃ³lmur and it would be very similar for where I live. You can see that the summer temp hit a low around 1983 and has been rising ever since. The overall raise is very slight, 0.2Â°C/century it says, but the 1983 summer was about 7.5Â°C June-Sept and must have been over 12Â°C last year.

That must have been the hardist thing to get used to (the temperature I mean)! I mean even worse than scandanavian vowels!

(On a different track, sat in front of some cloggies on the bus home last night - now that was goble-di-gook! How'd you manage Rob?)
