This heat

I'm afraid I agree with you lavender27.

Don't get me wrong I love the sun/summer but can't handle the warm nights at all, it feels like the temp. rises so much in the evening/nights & I really struggle. I found myself wishing for some colder weather, how bad am I? LOL

Why are we never happy?

Young fella with a Barbour Jacket on this morning, on a packed standing room only train.

Id be a puddle of sweat.

Thermostat must be broke.

I'm sure they all have air conditioning in Australia, and any other hot country, wealthy enough to have air conditioning. I may be wrong though.

I think your choices are:

Not unbearable - Open window

Quite unbearable - buy fan

Unbearable - install aircon

All three are perfectly fine choices, depending on bearability.

alright, you've hit 2 out of three.

No need, the hot weather seems to be over and we're back to normal.

Saw my first duffle coat / woolly hat combo today. In AUGUST. John Lewis has Halloween stuff prominently on display and summer outdoor things reduced.

So - what's everyone doing for Christmas?

[Lisa Taylor]

NNNNOOOOOO Don't mention the dreaded 'C' word yet, it's too son lol

Christmas Card adverts in the Mind shop window. Ho ho ho.

Christmas starts on the 1st September. Everyone knows that. I got told off for whistling God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen in the office today.

1st September???? I just can't deal with it!!!!!

I do love Christmas but it shouldn't be spoken of until November lol

Tonight's going to be another warm and sultry one apparently, so, for the OP's benefit, I tried filling a hot water bottle with cold water, chilling it for several hours in the fridge, then using it like you would a hot one to cool the bedding and to put my feet on. Worked pretty well and I didn't get any problems with condensation on the outside. I guess it could be used for children as well.

I'm pretty sure you'd get a call from social services if you put children in the fridge for several hours....

SS are cool about that sort of thing

Lucky I don't have small children as my brain's now so fluffy that could actually happen.
