Re: Deal With The Heat?

I deal with the heat by constant story repitition to anyone who'll listen of how "back in '98 when we re-crossed the Atlas we all reached for our fleeces because the wind was chill. The thermometer showed 35 degrees, a significant drop from 50+ at Erg Chebi a couple of days before".

After hearing the tale for the twelfth time people usually throw things at me, the trick is to only tell people who're holding iced drinks.

So far, I've been sitting in front of a fan, drinking loads of water and I'm contemplating a cold shower.
What the honest to actual good god fuck riot?!
A cold shower?
It's 22c, it's not the fucking outback here pal.

Go outside.
Some people.
If your not getting robbed by rose sellers, your getting "heat stroke" from a summery day.

Mental.

Re: Deal With The Heat?

How hot has it been in Scotland?

I can deal with heat as long as it is dry but this oppressively hot, sticky, muggy weather is doing me in. It is the lack of sleep. How can I train cats to waft me with a big fan at night?

A contraption of catnip, pulleys, counter weights and massive cat sized hamster wheels.
