Well, back into the frying pan.....we need to pass on our Congratulations to the big winners: TinaK was first to respond and BrendaM was first to carry out past the decimal point on the Fahrenheit conversions!! Where are the men, I ask?!?!?!?
Anyway, on our return trip, it was a delightful 21.5 C when we left the mountains. 20 nauseating minutes later as we were at the bottom of the mountain, it was 28 C. About an hour later as we were driving, the temperature reached 33.5 C. Then, an odd occurrence - a dark cloud loomed and strange dots appeared on the windshield. After consulting wikipedia (the internet's most reliable source of all information that anyone can edit from anywhere in the world!), I believe we saw rain drops!! Whatever the alien invasion was, the temperature dropped quickly to 28 C. But, fear not..when we hit our street, it was 35 C.
For those still wondering what it all means: Fahrenheit = 1.8 x Celsius + 32. Happy Computing as we keep dreaming of a white Christmas!

What about keeping a bucket/pan of cool water near the bed and dunking your feet in it from time to time, and lay feet on a towel spread across the 'foot' of your bed? It will evaporate more slowly than alcohol...Ellie
