Clearly your not finding it to hot to see or maybe find the coolest time of the day to see, we are farther up the country to you Northumberland but I have found it to hot to do any think, any way rain is on its way so we are lead to believe and hopefully cool things down.looking forward to next video..oh by the way what was the dress you were wearing and pattern? loved the colour and style what I saw of it.
