Re: Whats your weather like today?
I was going to say the same thing minerva about WR temps she's been having! If that was my winter I would be lovin it! Mind you, it'd not that cold where Iam in BC but that it a great temp! I ride out in temps around 5-8C at times and run in the slush... it's all about the layers!
It was such a nice day again! I am going walking after dinner... it's great after 8pm
The kids ride their bikes and I try and walk/run as fast as I can without looking like a total idiot! But the other night the dreaded mosquitos were out
I got bit a few times but they dont usually bite me....

Re: Whats your weather like today?
Remember, it's not that warm inside when you're out of the cold here. I knew some german students who complained of the cold here because few houses or flats in sydney have heating. They weren't used to it being 16 inside and only having a small heater.
I've always been a bit surprise at the death toll in european heat waves. The temperatures are not that dissimilar to summer here. I guess it's just a matter of having the means and knowledge of how to keep cool and avoid heat stroke. We do have fatalities here from heat, usually in the elderly due to dehydration or severe heat stroke making an existing condition much much worse.

Ergh, jealous of beach too... The ones here are just too cold to be of any use! We go up to Ainsdale quite a lot and yesterday it was gusting 20 knots and about 12C. And hundreds of jellyfish have washed up, adding to the general lovely effect...
Whereabouts in Spain are you, Deb?
