As Big Vern says; 30c in the day and 20c at night here near Torrevieja. I am doing life in shorts and I am padding around barefooted. Was swimming in the Med' yesterday.
I have all the doors and windows open, which isn't particularly clever. The folk in the house behind me are cooking ... and they are not too good at it. Before I realised where the burning smells were coming from I rushed around to check my kitchen out.

Arrived back in Alicante just after midnight on Sunday and it was 27C! The house is no longer the cool haven it was and it's the fact that the temp. doesn't drop very much at night now that is beginning to make it feel sticky. It's going to be a long, hot summer!

It is a bit better up in the mountains. The secret seems to be to copy the locals. Before sun comes round close doors and windows and drop the persianas - it is like living in a cave but at least it is cool. Another trick, if you have an attic with windows is to open them - it may be warm air blowing through but it also draws the cool air up through the house (make sure you have first swallow- and mosca- proofed the attic windows).
