It Aint Half Hot Mum !.

For the benefit of our readers in foriegn parts its worth mentioning that Silverton, like the rest of the UK apparently, is currently suffering the effects of a heatwave. What makes this one unpleasent is the very high humidity which is accompaying the current high temperatures. Nightime temperatures are what daytime temperatures were this time last year. Sleeping conditions are not pleasent and its not an ideal situation for man nor beast.

Can it be only five months since we were slip[ping and sliding about in the ice and snow and the skittles contingents were having trouble getting through the snowdrifts to get to Newquay ?. we crtainly seem to be getting some extreme climatic conditions this year and I think that we all know how the current big heat' is going to end.

Thunder, lightening and torrential downpours seem likely to be the order of the day.
