[Upgrade]

Was strangely misty today at around 4-5 pm. Nice and cool today

 

[Schizo]

Freak of nature

 

[Kosmiche]

err what? I have a jumper on.

 

[bliss]

Hit around 24c today and I still had goosebumps on occasion. Is there something wrong with me?

 

[Raggs]

weather was crazy here today chilly and foggy early on jumper needed, come 12.30 was warming up 21c according car dash at 15.30 was reading 29c.

Nothing but fog here today. Two miles inland though and brilliant sunshine.

The fog horn on the lighthouse is driving me insane.

Similar here in Stafford. Woke up to first fog this season, which would normally mark the start of Autumn. Dew on the grass as well. Late afternoon, 'twas 25C, roasting our socks off in a humid office. Only the board room (read: important people!) have air-con. Us lowly proles are stuck with noisy ageing desk fans, slightly yellowed in colour from decades of use.

I'll be glad when Autumn starts properly though as I prefer the cold.

We've got a portable air conditioning unit but alas it can only be in 1 room at once, so I'm looking at getting another one.

The one we've got now - a Homebase TC-8031 - despite saying it needs to be drained has NEVER needed draining after 5+ years of heavy abuse. However looking at new ones, as ours is no longer for sale, and reading the reviews most seem to need to be drained frequently which sounds highly annoying.

Anyone know of a 8000-12000 BTU unit with a remote control that doesn't need to be drained regularly, or preferably never?

I have a 15000 unit from http://www.climachill.co.uk/ and the water it collects is recycled inside to watercool the unit.

Some times I end up adding extra water, never had to empty it in years.

Doesn't sound like it's working that well if it's not taking moisture out of the air

Summer is officially over in London! Just over 20C and chucking down like mad (typical autumn weather..)

 

[MooMoo444]

Bahhh all this discussion on air con is close to convincing me to buy one.

Probably best to buy in the winter when they are cheaper ye?

 

[Cosimo]

Who said summer was over, going to be 30+ today.

 

[Gustov]

Who said summer was over, going to be 30+ today.

Wat?

 

[Cosimo]

Wat?

You heard, another 30+ coming today.

 

[squerble]

Had 9ºC overnight, cooled the house right down with a couple of windows cracked all night

Working perfectly. Just doesn't need emptying!

 

[TonyTurbo78]

Finally some cool nights, and finally a decent 8 hours sleep.

Totally agree, sleeping when it is 10C outside is definitely much more enjoyable!

My PC is loving the new temps too
