Hot. 27 degrees in the relatively cool indoors.
 
This is why all activities are cancelled or postponed today. Retirement to the swimming pool until early evening.

I got back home about twenty past one, did 54 miles, rode most of the way back with my mates before peeling of to do the last few miles home alone.

Ah yes. we thought that hot summer would never end. It was quite a shock when it actually rained. :smile:
I was at my brothers wedding when the summer gave way to the first sign of autumn. September something. That's why he doesn't get a wedding anniversary card, I don't remember the date. I had finished a summer full time job at Harry Halls shop on the princely wage of £16.50 a week paid on a Saturday and started college the Monday after.
 
Not of the top of my head, September?
I think it was very early September. Without embarrassing myself by phoning my brother to ask him on what date he married I will guess.
Many of my friends took the summer off and loafed before university or college and I felt some envy but Harry Hall gave me discount. Like the old days of the truck acts he gave me money with one hand and took it back with the other. My friends had deep sun tans and I had campy equipped bikes.
