Hot & Humid in the UK -- or NOT!

Well today was a bloody lovely day - by all means - however it was not ''Hot & Humid'' as the newspaper, TV, and TRAIN STATION recording all noted.

The British freak out I think when the mercury reaches past 25 C - which is about 77 F degrees.

As I'm on my way to work I read the paper about how it was so hot this weekend that families had to vacate their homes to the coastlines and beaches.

At work - some of my colleagues didn't even want to go outside because it was too hot

At the train station - I'm waiting for my late train and I overhear on the loud speaker ''Attention this is a Heat Advisory - if you are feeling dehyrdrated please remember to drink a lot of water during these high temperatures.  If you are feeling ill do not board a train and if you are on a train and feel ill do not pull the emergency alarm''

On the BBC news weather - hot and humid today and tomorrow is going to be another scorcher!

Well I would like to remind all that today was a GORGEOUS day.  Mildly warm - but by all means not hot!  I loved today.  Its just funny how people have different opinions of weather!  My favorite part of the day was the loud speaker at the train station though!  Priceless
