According to BBC Sussex Wigginholt and Herstmonceux both made it to 34.5 degrees Centigrade making Sussex the hottest part of the UK yesterday. Has certainly felt like it, haven't slept properly in days. And happily I will be in a Quarry in Kent all day tomorrow in hard hat, safety boots and overalls. Really looking forward to my site visit...

According to Carol Kirkwood on BBC this morning... it’s lovely in Greenwich park and she’s seen lots of Doggers! [emoji1787]

Sussex, by the sea
last time I remember heat as intense as yesterday I was in Chennai.

I got the temperature gun out and it was genuinely over 32 ish degrees in Shoreham, we managed to keep the house at 28 . . . . my garage door measured 60, the car seat 77 celcius . . . . I should have put a pork belly in there on slow roast!

Don't mind the heat, as long as there's a breeze of some sort. Was fine Saturday, but yesterday was horrible in London. It's 10am and starting to melt already.

I saw that. It was really funny. I'm not sure if she knew the meaning of the word or not, but she soon corrected it to "Dog walkers". Perhaps the Director shouting through her ear-piece?!

I may miss the a/c in the office, but I sure as hell don't miss the 20 minutes (on a good day) I have to spend on the Victoria Line tube in this weather!

Unfortunately job wise I'm wedded to London (we could throw the towel in, but it would be daft to do so), but 12 years to go and a home by the sea is calling!

I worked in Chennai for 4 months. I was finally able to demonstrate to my kids how hot it was there yesterday (kids, it was like this, all day and all night. In January).

This. The Vic line trains - and Green Park station in particular - are like an oven when it's 21 degrees outside. And the Central line is even worse.

Have two jobs booked in London and NOT chasing the Client for dates to do them in the near future, September will do fine!

Carol Kirkwood DEFINITELY knows the meaning, wouldn't surprise me if she was a dogger herself.
