Default not just Straya - 28 in the UK on Friday!!!

[also posted to Returning to UK]

Is it true that you got 28 degrees yesterday?!!
I was looking on bbc.co.uk to see what the London press were saying about Corby - I happened to see it was 28 in London. We (me and an Aussie who has experienced a heatwave in London) were amused.

Were people jumping in Hyde Park Fountain and were there "sunny man" pictures and a big "28", and topless girls in St Jameses all over the tabloids.

Probably a bit hotter - about 30! I love it except I got the train into London (only about 20 mins) and the windows only partially open and they had the heating on full - you can guess what happens in the winter!!!

Yes it was the highest May temperature since records began in 1953.

It was 28 where I live in Surrey, lovely

I didn't see any topless girls though, doh

I'm in Surrey too - it was lovely yesterday. Caused havoc with the Tubes though - apparently the heat caused a line to melt (or something equally ridiculous) which messed up three lines for a while.
Some people were stuck on the trains for an HOUR in the stifling heat :scared:

Looks nice again today but sadly I'm at work all weekend, and Bank Holiday Monday, so no sunbathing for me

It was fab down here, was hot, but the schools still had the heating on so kids came out having lost about 2 gallons of fluid. Really nice today, sunny, warm, windy, doors slamming! Apparently doing downhill from tomorrow onwards. No newspapers saying "phew, what a scorcher" yet Wouldn't mind, but Wednesday, had the heating on.
