We are in Luxembourg at the minute. Had some good weather, but slot of rain the last 2 days. The locals recon by end of next week, supposed to warm up a bit, but would check Thursday or Friday next week for a better picture

Where are you going in France? South seems pleasant. Nimes reaching 35C and Montpellier 32C recently. (Not official but familys temps)

Well, the weather has been roasting since we left the UK on the 14th August. Our plan to do Germany didn't quite go to plan. We had a couple of days on a campsite on the German/Luxembourg border, then down to Bavaria (gorgeous) then onto Austria (stunning) and yesterday en-route back into Germany we found ourselves on a smashing wee site the Czech Republic where we are currently sunning ourselves in 33 degree heat!

Enough of the "how warm it is in Europe" chat .... please!

We were due to have a 3 week tour of France and Spain but fell for the "hot summer in the UK" prediction and a number of family birthdays so thought "sod it, lets stay in England".

Our last summer break will be this weekend. Predicted weather - Friday: Heavy rain, Sat: Hail storm, Sunday (the day we have to leave and drive 4 hrs to a wedding): Sunny :evil: It is so dark outside now, it could be dusk instead of 09:35!

I demand a summer refund now!
