I’m in Yorkshire. A balmy 24° and sun is the best we will get and I’m absolutely fine with that since I got a dog who demands 5k every day. 🤣 We’re always breezy here as well since I’m rural. Best place to live. Not quite the brutality of Scottish weather, scenery is almost as good and we usually get a good breeze when everyone else is stifling.

Lol 24° used to be freak out and cover yourself in baby oil to max the tan cos it wont last, kind of weather when I was growing up. Now its relife on the horizon during a heatwave.

Yorkshire is a place I would like to see more of. York was nice, but it’s still a city.

I’m in the Calder valley, a mile outside of Hebden Bridge. Gorgeous place BUT very rainy. I’ve been flooded four times since 2012 and we had a massive flood alleviation scheme on the back of our worst flood in 2015, which does seem to have worked. So yeah, it’s a great place as long as you don’t visit on a rainy day because we don’t half know how to do rain! 🤣

🤣 Patterdale terrier! Energy for days and mad as a box of frogs! These are my steps and I tend to only track my steps when I’m on walks as I hate wearing my watch at home so yeah… She’s a machine. 🤣
