Austin thinks London is great and he is happy. His favourite thing so far is the mummys at the British museum. Eloise liked the masks at the Museum Shop and Phill loves the tube, Katie loves the bagels and seeing us (of course).

Good photo of Katie (and London)
The Murphy-Hill's are in town and seeing the sights. This pretty photo of Katie is to compensate for former indiscretions...

Gadd, the heat! (part 2)
It is official.
Sunday was England's hottest day ever recorded. Where better to get the right tone of hysteria on this incredible event than from Uncle Rupert's Sun newspaper?
And I can confirm that it wasn't some namby pamby English version of hot, it really was properly hot. Especially because London has centuries of design for insulation behind it. Ventilation is a very theoretical idea round these parts.
We went to a music festival in Regents Park and it was too hot to be in front of the stage until quite late in the evening. But then the Brazilian dancers came out any everything was OK in the end.
It very strange to know that this is but a fleeting blip in the usual icy chill, but it seems like its been summer forever.

Gadd, the heat!
London was in panic today as a strange yellow ball of flame was seen in the sky, causing temperatures to soar above 30 degrees.
"It's just too bleedin' 'ot, innit" said Reginald Blethers as he reached for a cooling gin and tonic.
The dreadful suffering is to continue throughout the week, with a possibility that Wednesday could be the hottest day ever recorded in the UK.
Bring it on!
