"You don't get to see the sun very often in England. So it's nice when the sun does finally come out and you actually get to spend it outside... is always nice."

11. Close of floating Pimms cocktail bar on the Cam
12. SOUNDBITE: (English) James Buttery, punter, Granta Moorings
"Staying hydrated is probably the main one. It's obviously a very hot day today, about 35 degrees, is that right? So, yes, it's just a case of not overheating too much."

"The river was absolutely rammed (at the weekend). There were probably a good couple hundred boats out. A lot of which are self hires. So they don't really know what they're doing. So a big challenge on those sort of busy days, when the sun is out, is avoiding crashing pretty much."

18. Set up shot of Kerry Robson preparing punts
19. SOUNDBITE: (English) Kerry Robson, mooring manager, Granta Moorings
"You know, it's quite low (during the week when it's not sunny). It's like we still have the boats. So we probably have about three boats going out an hour, maybe. And then if it gets sunny, we have up to 20 boats going out an hour. So it's quite a big increase."

25. SOUNDBITE: (English) Toby Li, tourist from Wuhan, vox pop
"Well, as I know, in Shanghai it is over 38, recent days. Even in Harbin, which is located in north east of China, it's also over 30 degrees. And I am coming from Wuhan, and Wuhan is over 40 right now. So this place, just 30, is not as so much hot as China. But, I think this place is more relaxed and the environment is more friendly."
26. SOUNDBITE: (English) Garret Bouhuyzen-Wenger, tourist from Vancouver, vox pop
"Considering it was not very hot when we left Vancouver. Pretty slow, and pretty sunny, cooking a little bit. We've just been walking around and checking things out. That's why we stay close to the water for a swim today. Just because it's so hot."
