Hot here too, though I think you have us beat by a degree or two.

Nice cool breeze, though. Can't wait to drop by the allotment on my way
home and get a few bits done (no doubt watering will be the big one).

Full of optimism for the summer - it's amazing what a bit of nice weather
does to lift the spirits.

Here on the windy side of Swansea Bay we were at 80f at 1pm and it seems
to be getting hotter.

For a Northern European like me it is, as the song goes, Too Darn Hot.
Not the only one to think so, overheard someone wishing for snow, well I
would not go that far!

Oh gawd no 27 is disintegrate into a little molten puddle
temperature. I find it hard in anything above the low twenties.

Been out this afternoon taking the winter tyres off, almost too warm
at 22 but the F3 ESE'ly kept it comfortable with the wind chill down
to the mid teens. B-) Wind a bit strong tho' kept blowing my
kneeling mat away and the bucket with wheel nuts in over.

That's when I take my winter woolies off! I don't change into
shorts and a short sleeved shirt until it is at least the current
temperature.

At the other end it peaked at 31C sometime today. I've been planting
up the wall planters and hanging baskets today. Although everything
was watered well between 6+7 this morning, trays of plants were drying
out beside me as I was planting up and in the end I had to stop and
put the trays into bigger trays of water to soak. Sun tan lotion
factor 40 job today too.

Gentle breeze now and again but nothing more.

I'll have to finish off the planting out tomorrow though there's a
late afternoon interruption with some flamey thing passing the bottom
of the garden. According to the map whoever's carrying the torch will
stop level with the north side of my garden and get on the bus.

Cheers, Jake

Same here. School disco (normally indoors in the hall) was moved out into
the meadow, and parents invited in, it was more like the end-of-year
barbecue (minus the barbecue and the drinks license!). Shame, cos we
could have made a fortune on the extra sales had we had beer and pimms
for sale!

almost sold out of all fruit juice)

My tomatoes wilted in my greenhouse. Luckily I was there to give them a
drink.
I'm going to take a temperature reading in my greenhouse today at around
1pm, in the shade.

You should be thankful, you'd pay a fortune for that in a posh spa. :-P

LOL Definitely, I went to Inchdoney Island, Cork a few years ago to a
ThalassoSpa and the treatments were so harsh that on the third day my
skin broke down, being sprayed with a hose under pressure with ice
cold Atlantic sea water can do that.

You 'pay' to have that done???

Sounds like a form of torture! I've had the pressure hose treatment once,
though not with ice cold sea water. It left me so exhausted I slept as if
knocked out!

It sure sounds like torture to me!!! You are both very brave!

I don't know about your tomatoes wilting, I've been wilting for 2 days
now with a second day reaching 80f in the shade, and in the large poly
tunnel(the dome) with fans going it reached 107f.
I don't know what I reached rotovating and putting in 8ft posts for the
tree dahlias.
Tomorrow is supposed to be upper 60s f I hope so as I can't take much
more of this.
