Quinley Davies, six, gives Jerome Davis, 13 a soaking
SUN seekers in Swindon will have their fill over the next four days according to the Met Office.
It has predicted weather will be bright and sunny with showers interrupting the weather only briefly tonight before temperatures shoot up again tomorrow, Saturday and Sunday.
And although the Met did not foresee any record breaking days for Swindon they did say the weather would be fine and sunny for the weekend.
Today is expected to reach highs of 22C (72F) with plenty of sun.
And although there will be rain throughout the evening, leading into Friday morning, the sun will soon reappear and carry through into Saturday when temperatures soar to 25 degrees.
Sunday will be partially cloudy but temperatures will remain high levelling off at 22 degrees.

Boots, in Old Town, also reported yesterday that sun block creams have been selling well and that staff expected things to continue as the summer weather took hold.
Getting in on fun in the sunshine was the Davies family of Kenwin Close in Stratton St Margaret. Liberty Davies, 15, said she and her brothers and sisters really made the most of the weather in the family's garden.
She said: "It was great fun because we don't usually get to play out in the garden because the weather is rarely this good.
"We had to bring out the hose to cool down.
"The fact that the weather this weekend is to be nice is brilliant that way we can play out in the garden without worrying about getting wet by the rain."
Sunshine at the weekend that’s great, I will be on night shift trying to sleep through the heat and the noise of children playing happily.
I guess that means I will have to have a couple of pints in the mornings to help me sleep, still any excuse for a beer will do.
