no thank GHod but the winds blow smoke to where i live and the weather is "unhealthy", u can smell the smoke the moment u go outdoors

 

Sounds bloody awful. What starts the fires? I've heard downed power lines are one cause, but that can't account for all of the fires, can it?

How lovely is it to finally be able to sit outdoors at 8pm without shivering. Long overdue. Short lived I suspect.

 

September has been drop dead beautiful.

 

Hasn't been here, don't know the jokers that claim this has been Scotlands hottest ever summer get their data from.

 

….the bottom half of the thermometer?

 

Well that's what you get for living next to the Arctic.

Down South it was rocket hot today, had to put sun cream on and was sweating pelters.

 

Usually is, September often seems to be better than June.
Our summer isn't really June, July & Aug but July, Aug & Sept.

 

So not the hottest then.

 

Autumn has rolled in pretty sharpish.

 

All the while we were worried London would flood from the tidal Thames up it seems we need to worry more about it coming from above.

 

Is that uranus?

 

Looks like Ireland is in for a fun 48 hours!
