It is just about reaching as hot as I can bear, towards the upper 20s. If we get extreme heat for a few days I get through it by thinking that it will be over soon. At the moment next week is predicted to be around 30 all week and often the prediction gets higher as it gets closer.
I like to be outside at least some of each day, but I am not sure there will be much that is bearable.
I am hoping they have got it wrong and it reduces sooner than Monday week.
Two close family of my two close friends passed away during the heatwave before this one.
I have known them for many years.
One was in her 90s but one in his 60s with no known health conditions
Because these things take a while the cause of death isn't confirmed yet but with regard to the latter the police said the heat may have been the cause.
I read that during the same June week there were over 2000 excess deaths in France alone.
Do keep hydrated, out of the sun and have your head covered if you need to be in it.
However be very careful indoors too.

Sorry to hear this 
Hugs to you and the families
