Self and partner can't cope with temperatures much above 30C without
going into meltdown.


Very rare to have a true temperature above 30c in the UK. The inside of
a car in the sun, yes. But opening the windows on the move soon cools it
down to ambient.

We don't use the aircon very often (once every year or so) but it is
reassuring to have it.


I have used it to cool the car down before getting in.

Some people love high temperatures; others find that they can't cope
and get very unhappy indeed.


True. But we're in the UK. ;-)


Ummm...can I tactfully point out the "Mobile" in "Mobile Home"?

This does mean that we are not tied to the UK and can visit the far flung
reaches of mainland Europe.

Where (especially at some distance from the sea) the temperatures can be
more extreme than those normally experienced in the UK.

Mind you, I can remember 30C plus temperatures in the UK - around 2007
IIRC.
