And I thought we'd had it hot in central Europe last week! (36.5 in Budapest last Thursday, and Prague not much different). I have never sweated so much, but I haven't so much as lost a single pound, dammit, even after all the miles and miles we walked in the heat. Typical - every time we think we'll go get some warmth abroad there's a heatwave back home.

Well I'm off to Scotland in the next day or so to sit for a week and a half in my tent. Let's see if I get flooded out like I did last year!
