Default How hot is your vtr running?

As per title. What sort of temperature is your vtr (mk2) running under normal conditions? Mine always used to run about a third up the thermometer but now I have done a coolant and thermostat change (did the thermostat as I broke the old one in the coolant change) it is now running just above half way. Anything to worry about?

Very slightly above the first white mark,didn't used to though it sat higher but that was the head gasket on its last legs.
