That is the real surprise. I was saying in the schools I am associated 
with that the weather would change about 3.30 last Friday when they 
finished for the 6 week holiday. A teacher friend said it would be at 
7.30 when the teachers were all in pub gardens celebrating the end of 
the school year. He got the timing right but, as Michael says, the hot 
dry weather has returned. We're meant ti have rain on Friday (though 
still hot), but then very warm again after a couple of days of cooler 
weather. Hardly any sun gets into my apartment so it is cool but I 
notice it when I step outside.
