Some sheep take to the shade during yet another warm and sunny day in the Derbyshire Peak District . . . plus a random shot of a DHL Boeing 777 approaching East Midlands Airport from Delhi.

A sneak preview of where we’ve been today.

Britain is blessed with stunning and spectacular coastlines; the Lincolnshire stretch isn’t one of them.

Nevertheless, we’ve had an enjoyable day at Skegness where I tend to come away feeling better about myself having seen some of the sights on display.

You don’t have to go far from home to enjoy the sunshine in a picturesque setting.

This is in and around King’s Mill Reservoir on the Mansfield/Ashfield border.

The colour of the grass tells you how dry it’s been this summer in parts of England.

Not all, though. I hear it’s been more like a typical summer in northern areas.

I love holidays abroad, but when the weather is good in Britain - which it has been for a fair chunk of this summer - there’s no finer place.

Yesterday, we headed up to Castleton in the Peak District and today we’ve enjoyed sunshine and sizzling temperatures at Rutland Water.

How quintessentially English is this scene?

@NFFC When Gren thought his name was spelt how it was pronounced.

@LinzGelsthorpe I think the beach at Brighton, England, is pebbled🤣

Here, have a video of Brighton Beach in Bridgetown, Barbados, to brighten up your day.

Weirdly, I’ve never been to Brighton in England.

Am I missing much?

Anse Cochon Beach on Saint Lucia 🇱🇨.

I still have to pinch myself that I’ve been there.

@donmcgowan I think we need concrete evidence . . .

[Ashley @LifeOnCamera_]

The sunsets weren’t too shabby either.

Halkidiki peninsula in northern Greece back in July 2023, where it was 40c most days . . . but we had the luxury of nipping in the car and driving down to the beach to cool down in the evening.

Enjoy today because tomorrow never comes.

Anyway, here’s a selection of photos I took on the Greek island of Kefalonia last summer.

A few more days of weather like this and there’ll be talk of droughts and hosepipe bans.

What a country.

Dusted off the passport and headed up to Whitby on the North Yorkshire coast today.

Nice and warm on a Bank Holiday Monday.

Absolute scenes and loads of Yorkshire flesh on display.

@LinzGelsthorpe Congratulations to the both of you. I hope you have a fantastic day.
