Wondering if I can manage to do my work via an ice bath...

Would be nice.

Has to be better than an office with no Air Con.

Melting.

wfh is a proper challenge too - I feel like I'm just warming up the house even more ready for me to not be able to sleep tonight. The office I've been moved to has no aircon, so pointless going in there - trying to work out a reason for me to need to go to the one that does have it!

Taking a late lunch, maybe I need to go for a quick trip round iceland or somewhere, test out the frozen peas.

Cold baths and showers are the ones in this heat.

Maybe a paddling pool and wifi.

Made sure all my blinds were closed before I this morning

Water companies urging people not to have cold showers to save water.

Instead they should take a dip in a local swimming pool or the sea.

Nice tip, dickheads.

Which pools are open later?

Couldn’t imagine a worse time to go for a lap dance TBH.

Bunch of wimps.

I've come in to the office, air conditioning is superb. Our old office didn't have it.

It's nice.

The weather in this country is depressing 90% of the time. Just enjoy the little outlier.

Going to possibly be 36° on Monday and Tuesday.

 

[Liquid Gold]

37 here, that's not a heatwave that's a climate crisis rearing its head

Love the weather during the day would just like to to pour down rain about 10pm .

 

[JAM See]

Great film.

 

[Evo1883]

BBC weather .....Highest ever in Coventry is 35.6 i believe

 

[Nick]

Not looking forward to that.

 

[Deleted member 5849]

Who's got the aircon for us to pile into?!?

 

[Evo1883]

I reckon in about 100 years air con will be standard for all homes In the UK the way its going

Maybe sooner

 

[Evo1883]

The best spring / summer I can remember though for prolonged warmth was 2003

Obviously it never hit 38-40 but it was consistently warm

My missus is already talking about us getting it.

 

[Nick]

Tempted to book it off work to sit in my bath all day.

 

[Evo1883]

38 in the shade on Monday means over 40 in the sun .. it's ridiculous heat for this country ... where all the houses are insulated and have carpets etc

That's also the problem with our houses, they're designed to insulate and keep heat in. So hot weather means once the house has warmed up eventually... it stays warm.

At least now clients will understand why I sit in the dark all day.

Yeah, I have been leaving the blinds closed all day.

I normally love heat but this is making me really anxious.

This country is just not made to be that hot and it's going to be a struggle for normally people let alone those that are vulnerable.

 

[Evo1883]

Worst of it is .. most young lads and lasses won't be putting suncream on .. going to be carnage

I chatted to a mate for literally half an hour last weekend, outside his flat. My neck is still sore!

Ive lived in 45-50 degree heat for several months before with no air con and my best advice is to stay indoors .. you will be fine .. some absolute morons will be caught out and yes sadly some vulnerable will too

Yep, some will be out all day in a beer garden just on pints and completely dehydrated with their top off just burning.

I mean the beer garden sounds nice but I don't fancy the aftermath, need to stay hydrated and get some cream on. It's nice when you are by a pool and can jump in, not so much when you stink in the pub.

 

[Saddlebrains]

I'm going to keep the kids off on Monday and Tuesday, ludicrous to have kids in classrooms with this heat

Anything around 40c here and most people stay at home - when it’s mid 30s+ for months on end your mindset to it changes.
