By the way, where I live it will probably reach about 40 degrees today, but it is summer so these days can be expected. Is it hotter today than a few years ago – I don’t think so. Just ask a friend from the UK who visited us in 2008 – it was 45 degrees when he landed here.

My husband worked in construction going back some 60 years or so. He worked on building sites and it would be around 115 degrees F and similar, even higher, for days on end. ‘Strip to the waist and get on with it, mate’….and that’s what he did.
