with no break for catherine that is why the met office and public health england haveissued met officelic health england have issued that amber alert. the advice is obvious but clear. stay out of the sun during the hottest hours and it is the young and the elderly who are the most vulnerable. it is serious because people have underlying health problems and perhaps are on tablets and the hot weather just tip them perhaps are on tablets and the hot weatherjust tip them over into not being able to cope. i find sleeping difficult. i'm drinking more water and using ice. no problem for us, i think it is better than in the cold, wind and rain. the hot weather has a wider impact on our own behaviour and product committee put up these things become more frequent and they become the norm with climate change and then the economy will suffer because things will become more standard and we will have to adapt to these conditions put up in cla cton to these conditions put up in clacton on the essex coast keeping cool and avoiding sunburn were essential especially with even hotter days forecast. these
