Hi Guy, Pretty warm in England for July you say?? It's 36C (about 97F) right
now in central Arkansas. I've seen lots higher than that, though. But...mix
that with around 90% humidity and that means Hot, really, really HOT. Still,
I've had many years to get used to it and iot only lasts for a couple of
months. The rest of the year is delightful and even our winters are pretty
mild with low temps seldom dropping below 20F. Healeys and Spridgets are
driven year-round here.

It is 11.00 pm and must be all of 25 Celcius, whatever that is in "old
money" I am sitting here sweltering!! I just cannot take this sort of
heat!!
I am always surprised that humans have such a narrow temperature tollerance
band - at least until one gets acclimatised. I guess many from your
"Southern States" would be shivering next to me here.
Maybe I just need a new thermostat!
