    more shocking is the amount of people that in the last hour walking there dogs i would like to make them walk barefeet across the pavement fucking idiots. 
    Mine haven't been out since Sunday night at 11.00pm, since then the air temperature even at night has been in excess of 25c and I won't risk them going out. That said they are driving me fecking mad, if someone so much as stands to make a brew they think they are going out but they are safe and well. Don't even get me started on people still walking their dogs now there's a swearing ban on here!

    Great news! The air is still and hot outside and the farmer has just spread muck on his field 
    I can guarantee my neighbour will burn up all his garden rubbish this evening.
    I'd stick a hose over the fence and put it out.
    We've had the Fire brigade before when he set light to the fence.
    The council have said he doesn't do it often enough to warrant being a nuisance.
    Yes I reported one of our neighbours last week (after banging on their front door and telling them what I thought).
    This was the council reply. 



    Well they had to get rid of the tree you made them cut down somehow.

    No, this is a new dispute with a different neighbour.

    You could presumably smash his windows, as long as it's an isolated incident.

    The UK has had its hottest July day on record, with temperatures reaching 37.7C (98.6F) in Essex and west London.

    The previous record for July was 36.7C (98F), and the Met Office believes the UK could still break the all-time record of 38.5C on Thursday.

    Commuters have faced disruption in areas where trains are running slower on tracks at risk of buckling.

    Paris has seen a record-breaking 40.6C, with much of western Europe facing all-time temperature highs.

    According to BBC Weather, the UK's record-breaking July temperatures were recorded at Kew, west London, and Writtle, near Chelmsford in Essex.

    The July heat record was first broken at around 13:30 BST on Thursday when the Met Office said the temperature at Heathrow reached 36.9C.

    The previous hottest July day was recorded on 1 July 2015, also at Heathrow, with a temperature of 36.7C.

    Btw a top GP, government advisor or such like, said on the TV yesterday, that drinking hot tea & coffee etc doesn't cool you down.
    I've known for 50 years my dad was wrong.

    last couple of nights have taken mine out just before 9pm for half hour or so, been a bit of a cooling breeze and they have been ok. Dog walker took them over in the woods this morning early and it's well shaded. Does my head in when I pop out at lunch time at work and see people out with their dogs.

    Exactly the same as my reply.
    So basically, rather than not "giving a shit" their hands are tied by the laws around statutory nuisance. Fwiw my council takes a similar approach. If it continues to happen an informal letter of advice is sent making the party aware they may be causing a nuisance and only after that will notices be considered if it carries on. No court in the land will uphold a notice on the basis of one or two bonfires. 

    Not sure there's much wrong with that approach is there? 

    As for the heat, I'm sitting on my balcony watching the masses returning from their day at the beach. There are truly some sights to behold...at both ends of the scale.
