I stand out on the balcony.
I think to myself that it’s ‘nicely warm’. And then I think that most Italians are complaining about it being too hot. Last night, on my journey home, at the last traffic lights before I park, there is a chemists that has a sign showing the current temperature. It said 31°. It was nearly 7 p.m. I like this. A lot.
Today will be much the same. I guess it’s getting to about 33° or 34° during the day.
Everyone seems to be looking forward to Thursday or Friday when the weather will break.
Our mind plays tricks on us. I seem to remember that, when we first came here, the whole of June and July hovvered around the 30° mark. But this weekend (the beginning of July) it forecasts the low 20s. I secretly hope that the forecast is wrong. Or not so secretly if someone should ask me.
But, is it right that only 6 years ago, the summers were hotter? Or is it just wishful thinking (wishful memories?)?
Obviously, it’s nicer if you’re sat at a bar with a cooling beer or on the beach with the cooling sea to go in to – but we can’t have everything in life. Or, maybe I could if I moved further south 
Hi Andy – the cooling beer at the bar sounds about right to me. as long as the bar has A/C. phew. we SO differ on weather preference, huh?
I love it cool and dry.
Have a great week
Love to you
Gail
peace……
We do, Gail. I think you would hate it here now. You have a good week too.
Andy,
this weather is almost unbearable!
You Italians make me laugh. In theory it may be worse (or better, depending on your point of view) in July! Although, just for you, the weather will break at the beginning of next month
For me it’s bearable – you just have to move much slower (and DON’T do Pilates
That’s my problem. I can’t stop my Pilates classes otherwise I’d look like moby dick which is not ideal, especially in the summer (there is “la prova costume” as we say
However, it’s too f**** hot to move!!!
Hahahahahahahaha.
Sorry but I cannot imagine you EVER looking like Moby Dick! You are, as we refer to in the UK, a stick!
Yes, it is quite warm and it’s better that, if you have to move, you move slowly. Perhaps you can do Pilates slowly?????
