It's pretty warm here, too - about 70/21 degrees.

Glad Boyfie got to have a fun day outside. He's going to get confused,
though, when it's suddenly winter again.

Nah, he won't get confused - he's a Brit :-) We're used to having
different weather almost every day due to our maritime climate ...

Indeed. It was mentioned on TV this morning that some places in the UK
have seen a temperature range of more than 30°C (86°F) in less than two
weeks, from a minimum of -15.8°C to a maximum of +16°C. That sort of
variation is usually restricted to locations such as the Sahara Desert!

I didn't get the extreme minus temps but it did get to -10c one night and
here we are less than three weeks later in megaplus temps. 12C today. Oh,
joy!

Boyfie is a sensible cat. He asks to go out after his brekkie, takes a look
when I open the door and if it is very cold he decides his bladder can wait
and retires to his bedroom. Heavy rain gets the same response.
However, like yesterday, he was surprised by the mild weather and chose to
spend a lot of the day outside.
He's been out quite a lot today too - he knows it's only a matter of time
before the freeze comes back.
In a house without central heating we are both aware of the temperatures
outside anyway as it affects the temperature in the house. We are both used
to it.
