Across the UK, across Continental North America, at around the world, on the internet by webcast

and by podcast, my name is Howard Hughes, and this is the unexplained.

Boy, it's harder than July here in London right now, actually it is July, and we've had

incredible temperatures here for seemingly forever.

This was a slow burner.

It started quite gradually.

Temperatures built up, and then we had 35 degrees.

At 90 odd, Fahrenheit, 35 Celsius in London, and it's just stayed hot.

It's a little cooler today, but as I'm recording this, it's 30 Celsius.

I'm reading the temperature read out on my clock here, and it's pretty humid too.

So it's kind of, kind of whether the term almost impedes you thinking, so hopefully I'm

not going to say anything too stupid, but really it's been hot, and they tell us it's

going to get even hotter.

Plus, we've had to deal with the arrival of the new royal baby, William and Kate.

It's given birth to George Alexander Louis, and I have to say that whatever you think

about the monarchy, whether you're a supporter, whether you're not, they look like a superb

family, just starting out on this adventure of parenthood, and the reason I know so much

about it, in fact, I think they should invite me to the christening is that I was covering

this for Canadian, Australian and Irish radio stations over this last week.

So if you listen to any of the big stations in Canada, you might have heard me on stations

like CFRB 1010 Toronto, or the Nover and Smooth stations down in Australia, or 5AA in Adelaide

love them to pieces, great people.
