It's been mid 40s for about a week, everytime I've passed the Esnaf thermometer on the Migros road

That's a relief Quackers, I won't have to eat those smelly socks now   ;)

Seriously this heat is pretty hard to cope with. I was asked the other night how come I am so white and pale! It's cos I am trapped in my house with the air con on full blast.

Still, Doğan and I made a flying trip to the UK for a wedding one August a few years ago and it was so cold I had frostbite and I swore then that I would never complain about the heat ever again. I really feel for you all back home and given a choice I know I would still rather be here   :)

14 deg C (in the sun, which is behind clouds) in cold, damp Leicester.

Also, off work with a cold! Lovely cold British summer  :'( . I heard a lot of people are planning to get a last minute Holiday in the sun due to;

A. The Rain and cold.
B. This boring Olyimpic's that only Londoner's seem to benefit from.
C. Fed up with over priced days out (over £100 for a family of four to a theme park now in Britain, unless you have a money off voucher).

So watch out soon for the Brit invasion!  :o  ;) ;D

Best regards.
