Likewise!

I'm also slightly amused by some correspondents bemoaning (and even not coping with) the current heat, when we here in the effete and nesh southeast were more or less castigated last winter for not venturing out into the cold and snow in shorts and flip-flops.

You won't hear too many in London, aside from understandable moans about the heat on the Tube, complaining about this warm and sunny weather. They just loosen their collars, venture out into the parks and get on with it.
