Default 2001 XJ8 VP coolant issue

Took car out from winter storage & gave it a once over before taking for a ride. When I returned, popped the hood & my Rad hoses were pressurized & very stiff.Also noticed the hose from thermostat was very hot to touch ,however the other was almost cool to touch. Temperature gauge was at halfway mark & plenty of heat coming from interior vents. I've only owned since last year & car was worked on, but don't have it's history. Someone mentioned maybe my bleed & expansion pipes were crossed over to wrong connectors looking to find a schematic or tip on this issue. Thanks in advance
