It's been boiling all week so I've been taking the dogs out at night into a couple of feilds near by. It's really hot on the walk down the street but as soon as I hit the feild the temperature drops dramatically. I needed jeans and a jumper over there.
However I'm now sat in the garden in need of a fan. And crossing the road the heat just jumped up again!
I know that urban areas are warmer than the countryside but walking from one to the other and back again has shocked me, it's so cool over there and I'm stuck in my house and garden absolutely boiling. I'm struggling to settle. I just feel so annoyed that this isn't considered in urban planning.
We have ad about 5 new housing estates built near to us in the last 15 years (with more to come) and the gardens are so small, front gardens are basically non existent and the lack of trees for shade make walking through in the day virtually impossible. It's still so hot at night.
No aibu really just fancied a bit of a chat about it.
