I saw on the news that most of the country is at least 9 degrees hotter than usual.
I'm sure that's right, if not more in some areas. The steering wheel was burning my hands yesterday, and the air was so warm that even driving with all the windows open didn't cool things down - it was very uncomfortable.
It's much cooler this evening though - lovely!

...actually I just remembered I do have a/c in the car but it needs refilling or whatever they do to it - must put that on my list of things to do this summer
They sell the cans of freon with the gauge on it that shows how much you need. I know you are a pretty good mechanic.
But if you have a leak, better to fix it and then vacuum the system first and replace the dryer.

Lola won't stay outside even on cooler days - he becomes quite frantic trying to climb out of the enclosure to get back in so have to let him wander in and out as he pleases, but he rarely tries to go out. Funny institortionalised tort!
Tidgy's the same in hot weather, but loves to go outside when it's cool.
But not on the rare cold days.
She's fine with rain, but hides if it thunders.

Hi Adam,
Lola is pretty consistent he just doesn't like outdoors any weather - even the dandies can't tempt him and he has shelter and plants so its not too open for him - he's just strange!
