Badger, you're a twit! Wouldn't do that in the same temperature in Oz would you!!!
I think its just hotting up cos Carl arrives next Sunday - his workmates in Brissie told him it'll be cold and wet all the month he's here - obviously someone Up There is out to prove them wrong.....
On a more serious note - why is it that 35 degrees here feels so much more uncomfortable than 35 degrees in QLD? Is it cos we are not so used to it and not geared up for it here? What do people think?

In QLD, you expect those temps, and after you've been there a month or so, you do get used it a bit.
In the UK summer, the temps on and off like a light switch.

Heat is on for temperature record
Hundreds watched a flying pig during a sunny Hyde Park event
The record for the hottest day ever recorded in the UK could be broken in the next week, say forecasters.
As the country enjoyed a blistering weekend, the BBC Weather Centre said the record of 37.1C (99F) could be toppled by mid-week.
BBC forecaster Robert McElwee said: "It's going to get even hotter. But it will be unpleasant for a lot of people."
The highest temperature was recorded exactly 13 years ago, on 3 August, 1990, at Cheltenham, Gloucestershire.
Betting agency William Hill has reduced its odds from 12/1 to 5/1 for bets that the temperature will reach 100F.
