My plan at the moment to tackle the heat is to get some daisy dukes on and pressure wash the really grotty paving at the back of my house

I wonder if the COBRA meeting will introduce special measures for gingers, they must be really suffering.

Unfortunately we have visitors from Jordan coming to see us Monday to Wednesday next week. Doubt I can get out of that, and they'll probably think it's a bit chilly for them!!

If any customer comes in saying it’s lovely n cool and a manager overhears this, they may ask customers to grab a roller of delivery and work on that…

The only thing I don't like it's the fact my garden is suffering a little...

bought a portable AC in anticipation of that 37 weather. 30 was bad enough so I pulled the trigger.
Installed with the hose fitting perfectly out the cat flap.
Damn the comments didn't lie, the thing is noisy af. But seems to cool well and will get battle tested next week.

Any of you guys lucky enough to have decent bosses that will let you sack it off when it gets extremely hot?

You get used to the noise quickly

I might have to get the fan out of the loft. 37 is hot I'll admit.

This heat incoming is going to be hell with my 1 year old sleeping.
Lucky! It was 32c in my office the other day. It's going to be insane next week lol.

I‘ve found the trick isn’t to set the desired temperature too low and have the fan on medium speed for best balance between cooling efficiency and low noise.
If the room is 27°and you set the A/C for 18°, it’s going to be running flat out forever.
it's like 2c (is there a degree little circle key?) less today which is nice.
here's my question...
28c or -28c what would you prefer, forever! lol
i'm guessing -28c is worse long term than 28? think
i'd go with 28c. it's an ok sci-fi movie where everyone is
in unerpants all the time.

Even for a mushroom like me that's not even a question. The benefits of living in a climate which is permanently 28C grossly outweigh those of a climate which is permanently -28C.
I don't think I've ever seen 35-37C actually forecast before on the BBC weather page or even on the TV for around where I live...
