In southern France near Avignon today. That’s 111 Fahrenheit.

And what did we get a few weeks back? Rain.

It's silly today. You can't do anything in this heat.

I'll be glad when it's cooler and I don't often say that!

Can’t begin to imagine trying to work in 44°c, I’ve worked in 36° and that was bad enough, I feel for you Cookie, swimming pool or sea? are you inland or near the coast?
