In Singapore you can literally taste the moisture in the air, though. That's a special place - especially being on the equator. Wonderful country with such nice people.
I just don't do very well in hot weather. I'm very much designed for typical British Isles weather. 20° and the shorts and flipflops come out. 25°+ and I'll be like this thread.

Still 24C outside, crazy. Thought it had cooled down since I’m sat in a fridge, went outside and saw all my neighbours with every window open, good luck cooling rooms down tonight, it’s so muggy out. Not bad, £1.50 to cool the entire house today.

Same here. Just been out to lock up the cabin and the heat hits me as I walk out the door. It's not cooled down at all this evening. Off to my 18ºC bedroom
Think of the rest of us in our ~27c bedrooms.Off to my 18ºC bedroom
What makes it worse for me, is that it was just over 27c in my bedroom and I didn't really have a deep sleep. The feeling of waking up to a bedroom that is as hot as it is when you went to bed isn't good.I'd rather not, that sounds awful
Yup you definitely can. Id love to visit for longer than the 14 hour layover we had going and coming back from Australia. The Air Conditioned MRT was very welcome.
Definitely cooled off though today. just in time for my Annual Leave.
Slept with the fan blowing on me from 2am till 7.40am no problem. Now sitting outside the back door in the nice cool shade, cooling down after the dog walk.
Inside the house hasn't really dropped below 26°C all week

We've had a ceiling fan installed for a few years now and even though it's off center of bed (on my to-do list) it does make a difference during these warmer nights.
Some temps inside currently are:
Living room - 29.8°C
Kitchen - 31.69°C
Bedroom - 24.9°C
WC - 24.4°C
Going to work out a solution for the kitchen as that temp kills the OH.
We've put up a thermal blind in the east facing livingroom and it helps first thing, compared to the bedroom directly above which we sleep in that has only an ordinary roller blind. The west side gets more sun as the house isn't on a perfect east /west line and only 1 of the 3 bedroom windows has a blackout roller blind.

Yep it was warm in the dojo this morning - got a good sweat on despite it being 730am. 
I will admit training in a metal warehouse type building with poor ventilation is not fun - but worth it. This is why I train in the morning at the moment as it's grim when a whole day's worth of heat is trapped in there. When I did some training in the middle east it was at least air conditioned - still sweat a tonne but you feel less gassed.

I spent 6 nights there and it was nothing short of incredible despite their mosquitoes thinking I was delicious.
It's 18° outside now but the house is still 24°. It could take another day or two to cool down.
