| 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. |

| Re: Deal With The Heat? Feverishly try and write enough new songs to fill a 40min set for the following evening.
I stopped noticing the heat hours ago. |

I'm not built to take this kind of heat  |
