Weâd play cars and trucks in the dirt, run through the frog-eyed sprinkler, or â this doesnât seem right â play school, during our summer break. Remember the game that involved searching for an object, where youâd shout âyouâre getting warmer,â as the searcher approached the object or âyouâre getting colder,â when they moved farther away from it?
âYouâre so cold youâre freezingâ meant they were so far away they might as well start over.
I think Mother Natureâs playing that game with us this summer and we must have gotten really, really close. A few weeks ago I heard a little voice in my head shouting âyouâre so hot youâre burning up,â when Iâd crawl into the car after it sat in the sun all day.
Paxton House
Old Town: Work may soon start on converting a three storey-office block just off Victoria Road into 24 flats.

The conversion over three floors will house three two-bedroom flats, 10 single-bed flats and 11 studio flats.
