Today's #cycle trip was to #Exmouth which is about 18 km away by #bike and either on #cyclepaths or very low density residential #MotorTraffic. It has been a bright sunny day but still a bit cool. This is a #photograph of the #ExeEstuary which opens out into the #EnglishChannel or #LaManche. It was #LowTide and so you can clearly see #SandBanks in the middle of the #estuary which form a #habitat for #birds but also a #NavigationalHazard for boats. You can see the opposite #bank too which is in #Starcross.

Today the maximum temperature here is about 30°C but is likely to breach 40° in some part of the country for the first time in recorded history. It's particularly worrying as the last record was only set three years ago. I decided to do my #cycling in the morning to avoid the peak. It was a route along the side of the #ExeEstuary and so outwards, there was a fairly strong #headwind from the #OnshoreBreeze but as soon I got to the turning point at #Starcross, it became pretty easy.

In the house, the side not facing the #Sun is very comfortable and so I think I will be moving around the house to avoid the #sunlight. The kitchen is at 24° where as the conservatory next to it is at 31°.
