I don't know how the feck people cope with this oppressive heat
I have had 3 showers a day , thats a complete waste of time , 15 minutes in fresh clothes and I am soaking wet again
22 degrees tonight at 11pm
Give me a cold dry January day over this punishment
Was talking to a fella from Georgia the other day who said the summers there were like this and he moved here to escape the dry intense summers of the Black Sea
Cripes
Get out the back. Work on your tan.Originally Posted by SLUDGE FACTORY
Georgia is in America, nowhere near the Black Sea Duh!

Though I presume you were joking..
When did this happen?
This has confused me completely
Are any other U.S. states expecting to break away to form their own countries?
I keep out of the sun in weather like this . Spring and Autumn I can handle the hot days as you can be sure of a cool night but this is horrid . I used to go to festivals in this , I must have been mad .
Spent all day yesterday swimming and and drinking San Miguels in the river Wye with friends then sat in a beer garden in shorts and tshirt until 11pm. going to go to the beach after work every night this week. Absolutely glorious
I have spent three days traipsing up and down the Quantocks and along the steep Dorset coast in this heat and I can tell you what sweating profusely is
I find a good quality electrolytes helps
Don't come running to me if you drown
I am an excellent swimmer
Imagine being a poor old sod in a care home in this weatherI have spent three days traipsing up and down the Quantocks and along the steep Dorset coast in this heat and I can tell you what sweating profusely is
Poor bastards
Not when you are pissed you aint
Don't drink and Swim
18 month ban
I am also an excellent drinker
Sure as hell beats a 27 degree heatwave doesn't it?
I can't compete with that
I am a beaten man
I spent from 1pm till 6.45 at a football tournament, it was bigger than we thought with loads of teams, played 5 min E/W ( which you would expect would mean the games flew ) got to the Semi's and beaten in extra time with a golden goal
a long hot day, imho it was too hot and they should have cancelled it
Bring on the winter
Football , fishing , metal gigs
Regarding whether this is a "heatwave" compared to other countries...
I'm old enough to remember the long hot summer of 1976.
I don't think the temp was as high as it is now, but everyone was dripping in sweat...
We had a Nigerian working with us, he was used to heat per se, but he said the "wet heat" of the UK was almost unbearable.
1976 convinced me that I would never, ever want to live in country with constant heat, ridiculous unbroken run of hot, hot weather.
how long did it last?
I’m still convinced…. Oh, the hot spell, just checked, 23rd of June until the 27th of August, from the 23rd of June - 7th of July at least one place in the UK reached 32.2 degrees. It was relentless, severe drought, with the government bringing out the slogan, ‘Save water, bath with a friend’.
Eventually Dennis Howell, an ex football league referee and Minister for Sport was appointed Minister for Drought. To my mind he’s the most successful politician ever because when the weather broke it pissed down for weeks……what an appointment

Blimey that is a proper stint, I wouldn't envy those working outside during that
