How’s everyone coping with the heat?

  1. Pretty well actually… Just returned from two weeks in Greece and it’s nicely easing me back down to normal temperatures…

  2. I like it. I got home and my partner had dragged the couch outside and now I’m laying on it about to eat

  3. I saw a dog chasing a cat, and it’s so hot they were walking (joke courtesy of Ben on his Tasty Classics YouTube channel)

  4. I’m lying on your windowsill by the mesh ventilation. Can u please get me a small bag of ice to play with with my back paws.

  5. I’m taking sips of a specialist medicine made from barley and hops. An all natural cure for heat.

  6. Bought a house that has aircon in the main bedroom. Running it for 30 minutes when I go to bed is a godsend.

  7. I’m in Florida but my brother lives in London. 95 degrees F versus 90F. Not too much difference! 🥵🇬🇧🌞

  8. Alexa cheerfully telling me this afternoon that “it’s currently 33°” Ugh. I’ve emptied the dehumidifier twice today, I’ve put ice cubes in the cats’ water bowls, there are two fans in the lounge and one in the bedroom.

    Currently sitting in front of said fans with a glass full of ice and a cat whose mission it is to get as close as possible to me.

    Roll on autumn.

  9. Jokes aside we bought a standing AC unit which we put on in the bedroom for a couple of hours before bed. Gets the ambient temp from 28 down to 21 on a good day.

  10. I go to the beach/stay by the coast. At home I shut the curtains and open windows. I wear dresses or breezy/flowy clothes.

    Cold drinks help – mocktails, elderflower cordial, ginger beer, good ol’ water…

    Oh yeah, and eating a lot of fruit. Watermelon and strawberries are my favourites.

  11. Portable A/C for about £200 with a A energy rating. Its awesome I can feel somewhat normal instead of having my nuts stick to my leg.

  12. Earlier in the day I drove home sweaty and tired from running errands, excited to sit down and have a cool drink, only to get stuck behind an ice cream van parked in the middle of a residential terraced road, the one right before mine….almost ironic. They moved after 10 minutes but Fuck Me I was grumpy lol

  13. I’m a puddle.

    anyone else live like a vampire while the sun’s out? All the blind shut. Windows shut. Don’t go out until direct sunlight is gone.

  14. Sitting around the house in my underwear, I’ve just been banished to the upstairs as wife has friends coming round & I said I’m not putting clothes back on

    Tbh I don’t really mind the heat as I grew up in SA

  15. Well, it wasn’t the best day to donate blood, let’s just say that! At least the cats are all good.

  16. I managed 4 hours work as a gardener before dropping my trowel. Escaped to my other job, a butchers shop. It’s a win win situation because they think I’m working extra hours to make up for all the bbq trade, but really I’m just making use of the fridges.

  17. My wife has just put a cardigan on and dug out a blanket.
    It’s 24°c in this room.
    I have the fan blowing at me and I’m sat here melting.

    On an unrelated note, how do you tell if your partner has been replaced by one of the lizard people?

  18. In a midlands hotel with no air con and a window that will only open an inch. We’ve got two fans blowing some nice hot air about to keep us extra warm.

  19. Got my portable air con burning cash like no tomorrow. “I don’t care what you think Dad!”

  20. Hate it. Am a Left Below Amputee, the missing leg/foot means am ~15% less effective at cooling now.

    🌡🥵🥵
