I didn't realise until recently that fleece could be used as sun protection so that has been a most useful discovery. I morphed from full time student to full time work in 1976 so remember the shock of adjusting to a new way of life and the summer vividly.Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10794392333038962798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081101795597600004.post-23388663020155577912018-07-03T00:55:10.888+01:002018-07-03T00:55:10.888+01:00Noelle, here's wishing you some happy rains ve...Noelle, here's wishing you some happy rains very soon.

In Lancashire, the 76 heatwave did not start till about now (I was married on July 3rd) and the second part of June was very wet, but then again, rainfall was always much higher there!
