Friday provisionally became the UK’s hottest June day on record, with 36.9C recorded in Wattisham, Suffolk, beating Thursday’s highest temperature of 36.7C in Merryfield, Somerset, the Met Office said. |  |

| Dear East Anglia on 11:11 - Jun 26 by _CliveBaker_ | Whenever people moan in the winter about it being cold and say 'oh I can't wait for June, leaving the house in a t-shirt at 10pm'. Nah, stick it. Give me the cold, I'll put a coat on. I've struggled to exercise this week as well which isn't helping. I normally run 25 miles a week and I've not been out for days. Not good for my head. |
I hear you mate.... |  | |  |

BBC’s saying 36° for Ipswich. It’s ridiculous for the UK. We’ve been at 34-35° for the last two days. ‘Only’ 29° today and it’s surprising how much cooler it feels. |  |

Depends on the depth for a dip surely, you'd have to go all the way in |  |

| Dear East Anglia on 17:21 - Jun 26 with 578 views | flykickingbybgunn | On the coast we had a sea fret or is it a haar yesterday. It was only 17 deg in my shed. Very pleasant if a tad damp. So I looked up what happened. If you get a warm, moist wind blowing over a cold sea, the air cools and forms a fog which blows inland on the inevitable onsure breeze. What you call it depends on where your local viking came from. If they were Danes then it is a fret. If they were Norsemen then it is a haar. |  | |  |
| Dear East Anglia on 17:38 - Jun 26 with 547 views | StochesStotasBlewe | It’s currently 37c outside on my bench in the shade here in IP23 according to my thermometer. Currently 29c indoors. Fitful nights sleep ahead methinks. |  |
| We have no village green, or a shop.
It's very, very quiet.
I can walk to the pub. |

| Dear East Anglia on 11:36 - Jun 26 by NthQldITFC | I've been in the Orwell this morning and for a second I thought I saw Drew Barrymore just beneath me, but it was just a mermaid. |
Interesting. Normally mermaids are only seen in the tropics. |  |

I actually love going to Landguard Point, fairly quiet beach, you can see Harwich in the distance, even take the foot ferry over if you are so inclined, and the water is calm. Bonus of watching the cargo ships roll into the Port of Felixstowe, too, which I find quite peaceful and enjoyable. |  |

| Dear East Anglia on 10:52 - Jun 26 by _CliveBaker_ | I'm sick of it, not made for this weather at all. If Michael Barrymore invited me over for a dip I'd probably go at this point. |
They don't like it up em! Was that a Barrymore saying, or someone else? |  | |  |

On 23rd July take in the Landguard Fort. Then board the ferry to Harwich and make your way to the Redoubt Beer Festival. Train back. It is is grim but somebody has to do it. I believe it will be me (again). But only if I must. |  | |  |

| Dear East Anglia on 11:03 - Jun 26 by bluelagos | One thing I learned this week - you can still get sun burned sitting in the shade Googled it yesterday - sun rays can bounce off concrete and windows. Knew it can happen at the beach (Glass in the sand) but in yer back garden ffs |
Isn't it great to see all your mates down the pub when you're suffering from sunburn? They're so pleased to see you that they give you a hearty slap on the back. |  |
