Deal With The Heat?

I don't know how things are in other parts of the country, but right now I have every window in the flat open and there isn't even a breeze outside, let alone in here and it's roasting.

So, what do you do in this kind of heat to keep cool?

So far, I've been sitting in front of a fan, drinking loads of water and I'm contemplating a cold shower.

I know you are all young and stuff but this is known as Summer in the rest of the world, we used to have them all the time a wee while back.

Feverishly try and write enough new songs to fill a 40min set for the following evening.

I stopped noticing the heat hours ago.

And they have always been horrible! Roll on autumn and the pouring rain and howling wind!

I'm a Scotsman from those strange pointy places where you can see snow all year round. I'm not built to take this kind of heat

Drinking, smoking, wafting the air from the open balcony windows. What more can one man do?

Cold shower would totally work. I wish I had a shower for instances such as theese.

See the thing about living out here, we get camel-spider descendants coming through the windows, so I'm cautiously sitting with all the windows open
