Nah that would be silly - I'd be baking outside.

As I am now is just the right balance.

Anyway we're all different and cope with the temperature differently

If current weather models are to be believed the temps could rise even more next week. Potential for places to be 35C-38C if it comes off.

You mean ones like the BBC use that don't know whether London will be 18C or 35C next wednesday?

Yep, those ones

You can see the high 30's temps heading north through France here:

Will it reach us or not :eek:

Trying finding a <£20 >9" fan in the London area for collection is a joke.

Supermarkets, homeware stores, everything is out of bloody stock!

My thermometer says 31c in my office in Manchester, even with two air con units and 6 fans.

My car has better air con.

22 here at the minute but feels a lot worse than that today. Have had higher recently but it didnt feel so bad.

Far to ****** hot, even the equipment is playing up

DiCe! · 17 Jul 2013 at 13:28

My room was at 31 yesterday afternoon when I got in. Air con got it to 26 before the sun went down then it dropped like a rock.

Too ****ing warm :mad:

I'm just making the most of it because the autumn/winter will no doubt be damp crap that causes no end of a grief and a constant cold.

Absolutely beautiful stuff even if the office is 27 degrees with an air conditioner (albeit a relatively small one) switched to max.

The piddly little fan in my HTPC PSU is whirling like a dervish

They both were. 75 was hot and dry with a dry winter then 76 was even hotter with a drought because of hardly any rain between them.

Ah makes sense.. aww poor mummy I bet it was horrid for her.

Edit. Loving the heat here, no need to take dogs out for a run. They are just monging out on the laminate flooring.. :-)

too hot for them

Deicing the car this morning was hard work. I had a bead of sweat on my forehead before I even left the driveway.

Guerrilla · 17 Jul 2013 at 15:04

Haven't been too bad so far but today they have the solder oven going at work which isn't helping with keeping cool

TheMightyTen · 17 Jul 2013 at 15:12

I remeber when it rained in '76 and all us kids were out dancing in it. I don't think I'll ever forget house bricks in toilet cisterns

Shamikebab · 17 Jul 2013 at 15:46

32.5 degrees in the office today...or "**** that" as I'm now naming it.
