It's hot...

Comfortably over 90F here in rural Warwickshire. We have the girls' paddling pool back out after 10 years in the shed and can just about get legs & bum in if we take turns...

Came back cross country on the R100RS from Hampshire last w/e, 90F then too, and seriously sweaty - that fairing's too good! Too hot to do anything today so I've given the GS its midsummer wash in the shade and poured something long & cool.

Talking of heat, it's the Fairford air show next weekend, with one of the last displays of the world's last Vulcan before it runs out of hours. (Assuming it starts etc.) If you go it will be well warm on the pan if the weather holds, and take eardies.

Meanwhile, I'll sadly be in Mumbai, where the weather is currently full monsoon

I'm just waiting for K to get home from work - then we're taking the S for a run to the West Coast for a night in a pub / restaurant with B&B attached.

25C here, melting tar on the roads

Too hot for all that bike gear, although I really want to get out

Saw 32 on the in-car thermometer in Shaftesbury on Saturday. Local radio reported 36 C in a village down in the valley

Bit cooler down here on the coast - only 29

Forecast to get steadily hotter towards the weekend as if it wasn't hot enough already

It's stunning here at the moment, with temperatures around mid-20s. So, just about perfect.

I've never seen the Highlands in the sun only in horizontal rain with occasional glimpses of sunlight as the clouds move

If you'r not outside on your bike, It is way too hot!!! Bring back the snow!

I'm stuck in an office with 15 other people and 15 computers kicking out heat, with no air con, just a few fans blowing hot air around. I think I'm going to go into a rage and kill someone if I don't get out of here soon.
