First of the warm days here. At 23-26C for next couple of days I’ll definitely be getting the portable AC unit out. Shame there’s no wind so electricity prices are high!!

Mini heatwave this week, three days of summer. Enjoy it while it lasts...

Currently 38C in my office.

Going to have to rethink this setup and either move my desk into a different bedroom, or relocate all the server/router/NVR to another room as it's kicking out loads of heat!

I think aircon would be a bit of a priority purchase in Spain.

It's my highest priority even in the UK

Yeah, we've got it in other rooms, just not the one i've been delegated to as an office and it's a rental. One of the spare bedrooms has A/C so i might move into there. Issue being it's a nicer room and the wife wants to keep it for guests whereas my office is smaller and not really big enough for a double bed and have space around it.

Our house is being built with ducted air, similar to the US houses so will just regulate throughout the house which will be the dream.

I keep thinking about it, but then you get a summer like this one and lose interest.

Lovely day so far. Bright and sunny and warm.

Going to hang the washing out! Living the dream.

I've had plenty of days this year were windows open just isn't enough, especially for cooling the room with my PC in, and getting our south-facing bedroom cooled down enough to be comfortable when we sleep. I have a lot of interest, especially when it means I can keep the windows closed and not hear all the feral, screaming kids nearby

Hey. I resent that.

Beer garden weather all day until I leave work. Feels vindictive.
