No, Eliza......28 degrees at night is not "sheer bliss". It is quite unpleasant, much too hot for beneficial sleep so we wake up feeling as tired as if we hadn't gone to bed at all. Doctors have issued warnings about the dangers of hot weather, because heat kills more people than cold.

We still have to survive today (forecast 39 deg) and tomorrow (forecast 36 deg) and it should be cooler after that. It will have been a very long draining five days when the heatwave ends.
