Best summer - first proper summer, even - since 2006.
After the grey rainy wash-outs, and 'Spring has gone straight into Autumn', summers of the last decade or so, I'm loving this.
As for it being too hot to sleep, simply buy a decent-sized fan for the bedroom - the gentle hum of the fan will also block out the sound of the local gulls (I was visiting Brighton last month - Jeez, those noisy ******s never stop screeching).
Temporary break-down due today and tomorrow, with temperatures back to normal, and a fresher feel, but then turning warm again for the rest of the month.
Let's enjoy it while it lasts - we'll be moaning about dark evenings, the bitter cold, and snow, in a few months' time.
“As for it being too hot to sleep, simply buy a decent sized fan for the bedroom - the gentle hum of the fan . . .”
Give it a couple of weeks and there will be plenty of these available in the West Upper, some decent sized and some definitely larger industrial sized - the hum, though, may not be so gentle.
