Working from home in "office" room, I have a portable AC but the room hasn't got hot enough yet for me to warrant using it. Apparantly up to 37c here today.

Just got back from my 15 mile WFH commute on the bike. Was lovely! There was a nice breeze so didn't really overheat until I stopped at home

Don't see what all the fuss is about, it's warm but hardly unbearable.

At 5-6 tonight it will be 36c here, cooking tea for 3 kids, running around after one of them as he has a disability and needs to be kept in check, up and down stairs 20 times when getting them all undressed, showered, dressed for bed, then up and down stairs most of the evening for the certain child as he has sleeping problems as well.

So yeah, pretty unbearable for me.

I took the dog out at 07:00 this morning and could already feel how hot the sun was on my skin. Today is going to be mental.

I slept last night with only a sheet over me!

No duvet required!!

Must be warm!!!

Just got home from my morning walk. It started pretty nice but as the morning has gone on, you can just feel the heat getting hotter and hotter. Definitely feeling the heat now though and it's not even peaked.

Went to the gym, which is at the bottom of row of shops etc from me. Saw 2 people wearing coats! They were probably in their late 40s.

Keep hearing a dog barking. Don't normally hear a dog here. I thinking to myself, poor dog. Unable to pinpoint exactly the location.

Doesn't appear to be a place you particularly like anyway:

Why would you assume that I dislike places that end in "stan"?

Sorry to hear that, hope the next two days will not be too difficult for you

guess this heatwave means we might just break into double figures here in NI.

Yes really? some of us can't take any amount of heat. I stay out of the sun if at all possible. I like the winter months when its cold. In my house the blinds are always shut with a blackout blind always down in my PC room where most the time is spent. Right now I'm in darkness apart from my PC monitors.

It's actually "istan" you've attached to it. What about London makes you want to label it in such a way?

Computer says it's a balmy 28* outside at the minute which is lovely

Home office is still cool for now and I've pinched the fan from out of the bedroom.

JamesH85 · 18 Jul 2022 at 10:50

32 right now in my garden fence thermometer.

Wouldn't be surprised if the thing is reading 45 by 3pm. Might cook an egg outside later!

Tom|Nbk · 18 Jul 2022 at 10:50

reached 27c in my office room, right time for the AC
