Thanks, but what have I done?
And I thoroughly agree with you Alastair – too hot to comment back sensibly – but I just did.
Typical Campbell. Always blaming the Sun…..
Absolutely. Ooh – Venus out too – Serena also earlier.
Need to water peppers in greenhouse.
Hot indeed.
You are right AC, it is too hot! but this afternoon the temperature here in Devon has dropped back by one degree to 23C which is slightly more comfortable.
Though I guess we have been luckier here in the last day or two as temperatures have been much higher “up country” How a lot of us Brits like to talk about the weather! Ah the sea mist is rolling in down over the hills now, so that will cool things even more thankfully.
Well done Andy Murray, seems you are starting to find your scottish balls in that england fascist event….
I guess there has been a Heat-Health Watch system operating in England and Wales for…. erm one day?
Very droll. Us welsh and scottish have had to put up with your english nonsense for yonks. So ferck off will you!
Think I have wound the english up enough, I think. Martin Carthy, going on about someone from Kent, of all places,

I have fercked off!!!!!… i live in Spain!!!….poor miserable you, now i know why i moved there!
Cheers. More tea Vicar?
NHS care, are you coming back for that, inold age?
Lol! Fair question! Nope no need as I get free health care on SNHS here me being a war disabled veteran.
Send some rain over plse!
The rain on the plain on spain quesyion? Very good.
Gasp in needing water, you english, is all I say. : )
I was disappointed with Murray’s histeronics when things weren’t going his way. He seemed like a pre-menstral fourteen year old in his semi-final at times. Balls? He’s lost them again.
Anyway, that is what I think.
