People   (Re-unions, trace old friends and relatives.)

The hottest I have experienced was a week-end in Paris in the 1990's when we had to go back to the hotel to shower and change every hour as our clothes were wet and sweaty Pope John Paul was preaching outdoors and I felt sorry for the old boy.You had to remember not to grab hold of any metal handrails outdoors as you would burn your hand.We are a fairly pleasant 10degrees at the moment but the rain has been endless.The lane where I live has been closed to through traffic on account of a very large hole that has opened up for the third time and cost £70,000 in the last two years.I think I will be living in a large culdesac in future.The weather must be costing billions on a National scale.
