Well Baked in the Balkans

Did I say the high thirties? [I did.] Well I was out by a few degrees – the temperatures were in the forties with the hot heat topping out at around 45º C on Wednesday. Which is 113ºF for those of you still counting in old money. And that's a lot of hot, a whole heap of hot, in fact.

Lucky the temperatures came down at night and, in my tent, a good night’s sleep could be had. Or at least a good night’s sleep could have been had had it not been for burning rubbish tips, barking dogs, Albanian weddings, people projectile vomiting and impromptu discothèques from over-excited Gjakova students.

It was another amazing time out in Kosovo, very different from last summer, primarily because this year I was running the Summer School rather than filming it. There are some good stories to tell, which I shall spill onto these pages in the next few days.
