Weather ... again

[Sparkle]

38° here at the moment and set to rise. I spent last night on a sofa in the sitting room not very comfortable as it's only a two seater but it was far less hot at 85 f than upstairs at 93 f.

We've just spent the last 10 days at Hellfest, Europe's biggest rock/metal festival, near Nantes. The temperatures were in the high 30s and up to 42°C. We were there as first aiders and we were run off our feet. The heat was very intense and we had a lot of victims with heat-related malaises. We were on Alerte Rouge and part of that means the bars at the festival were only allowed to sell a limited amount of alcohol.
It's not quite so hot here(we got back today) but we will avoid going out until it cools down.

Down to 33C at 23.15h Normandy, 10 km from Pont Audemer. Sat quietly in the garden, little breeze, listening to all sorts of birds. Our gîte is a very, very, very fine gîte and also two cats in the yard.
