Summer finally arrived ‘up North’ as we sweltered in thirty-degree heat this month. Whilst that may sound mildly warm to some, thirty degrees in the UK (without the luxury of air-conditioning) can feel rather stifling at times. Having spent the day sweating in sweltering classrooms, the kids were relieved to switch their sweaters and school pants for shorts and t-shirts and to jump in the hot tub (which had been dropped from scorchio to chilly) to gain some respite from the heat.
Thankfully the temperatures have now dropped enough for us to get a decent night’s sleep and enjoy the sunshine without the risk of burning like a lobster (which given that three of us in this household have red hair and pasty pale skin can be quite an issue in the heat).
It’s certainly given us a taster for the Florida heat, thank goodness we will have air-conditioning and needn’t worry about sweating it out in school!
Thank you for reading this month’s #LivingArrows . I look forward to catching up with your #LivingArrows either through your own posts or comments on this post.
