A Postcard From France

X IS FOR?


EXTRAORDINARY! - so has been the heat we have encountered here in France where we are spending a few days. We are hoping that tonight's thunderstorms will mean that the temperature has peaked. It was even too hot today for me to explore the greenhouses at the local nursery - now that is an extremely serious state of affairs.

For more on the letter X take yourself to ABC Wednesday.

    Hi Anna, This is serious. Don't you hate it when it gets too hot to be outside? Or inside the greenhouse? I do hope it cools down soon. You've captured a wonderful photo though.

    Well, if you must be hot, be hot in France. Now enjoy a cool drink somewhere and fan yourself prettily. ;)

    I don't do well in really hot weather, unless it is low humidity too. Hope you found some breezes and maybe some cooler temps to explore the gtreenhouses.

    The mercury rose to 39C here. It's back to a pleasant 28 now.

    Just enjoy the warm evenings with a glass of something cool.

    That kind of heat, although X-asperating, reminds us that the British weather isn't all bad! Hope you had a glorious holiday and were able to get back to the nurseries. Caro x
