Not at the cricket..........but at the Rugby ;-) :-D

They will have to be careful. Did you have the news report in Oz, about the Soldiers who died in the Brecon Beacons (mid Wales) from heat exhaustion, in last summers heat wave, while on an SAS selection test?

I do recall hearing something about it, Jemima :-(

At least our temps here will only be in the high 30's. We do have the odd day when it gets to 40c. It was regularly over 40c when I worked in the Goldfields, but that was a dry heat and much more bearable

When you say "Goldfields" do you mean as in Gold Mining? I bet you could write some stories about that!

:-D :-D :-D lol, Jemima

No. I worked in Local Government. I started out in Manchester in 1965, then went to Middleton in 1966 where I trained as an Environmental Health officer. When we first came out to Oz I wasn't going to work in LG but it was the only area where I could find work and even then it was only in the country areas. No one was sure of my qualifications even though I had been in touch with the WA Health Department before emigrating.

I expect, working in Environmental Health, you must have needed your sense of humour at times Allan!
