Dried up

You might associate lakes that dry up with more tropical countries, but Britain has been having its share over the last few years; it's been around 30 degrees today locally.
Of course, we only get 'heat-waves', ie a stretch of four or five days at a time before we get back to the usual grey skies, but the hot days are getting hotter.

Doors open again

 
Tourist attractions have been opening up gradually, following the Covid restrictions during the Spring, and all seems almost normal again (apart from the masks).  
Moseley Old Hall, where the future King Charles II hid while he was on the run from Cromwell, is one of the best of Staffordshire's great mansions - and is one of those now fully open again to visitors.
