Just back from a week's holiday with the outlaws inlaws, average 40degC with 50degC in sun. Very enjoyable, although sweated a bit when very high humidity followed by the mother of all thunderstorms. 24 hours later ground was like a dustbowl again!

You cannot reliably measure heat in the sun only in the shade.

I am a happy bunny today as the air con on our mobile greenhouse is fixed. 145 euros for repaired  connecting pipe ( new flexible section between existing metal ends) and regas. Just in time for Temps to go back up next week.

I agree, but in the 'unreliable sun temperture' last week I ended up with an uncouth 'US Trumpkin redneck', after applying 15 factor, but worth it from the squeals of delight from my young daughter where I took her kite flying as it climbed up high in the thermals. :y :y :y IMO every child should fly a kite. 8) 8) 8)

STEMO comes across as a sad deprived Scouser who was too busy playing 'robin' to ever fly a kite, his only consolation from no longer any 'robin' is to own a whippet 'before you notice'! :P :P :P

A gas barbecue. Why not just put your cooker in the garden?

Hi TD

Astronomically you are 1 hour earlier in the evening than I am. So you are 1 hour nearer to days maximum temperature.

Still 33°C here
