Lovely day yesterday - so we drove down to Weardale,Cumbria for a railway related day.
On the way back north on the M74 I took this pic with my phone Smile
We had been cruising at 70 mph for half an hour - it even went up to 26deg briefly lol - by the time we got back to Perthshire it was reading a more comfortable 20deg.
The water temp gauge on the car even got as high as 90deg a couple of times Smile - usually runs circa 80deg.

Not surprised you had 30deg down south - the temp only dropped when we got north of Glasgow,it was nice to have the sunroof open all day Smile
