Heatwave - What Do You Think?

[10ClarionSt]

I think the govt should close everywhere down and furlough everyone. Tell everyone to keep away from each other (say, 2 metres?) for fear of over-crowding/overheating; stay cool by drinking lots of water and immersing your forearms in a bowl of water. Stay at home and follow those instructions until a vaccine comes along to combat heatstroke and sunstroke. Y'all know it makes sense! What do you think?

Erm, before you ask, the heat hasn't got to me yet. Wibble Wibble.

With the curtains and blinds closed its going to be difficult to see what the neighbour is up to.

My curtains are closed, I’m covered in sun tan lotion and I’m sitting on my ice pack.

The roast dinner is in and the sprouts I put on on New Years Day will be ready just in time.

It's not that hot. I was out bricklaying yesterday, no problem.

Not so warm today, nice sea breeze, just got the sound of powerboats droning in the background. Was hoping for some peace on my day off.

I would be funny if after all this fuss and weather forecasters going crazy telling us all whats coming, that it don't happen. :0)))

Hope that Boris does not go out running or summit HEATAGATE would not just sound right .

[Hopkirk]

What do I think?

I think the government should warn us what is coming and give us advice on coping and not becoming a burden on the health service.

Oh. Hang on. That's just what they are doing .

[pimplyteen]

Not a lot, looking forward to winter. :0)

Today, we followed advice that we heard on the radio, which said:
as soon as you get up in the morning, open all your windows to let in the cool, morning air;
as the day warms up, close your windows to trap that cool air in your house/flat;
then, close your blinds/curtains to maintain that cool atmosphere.
And, do you know, it works! I have spent the day (it's now 1500 hrs.) indoors, in a pleasantly cool atmosphere, and my lovely wife has been outdoors, caring for her thirsty plants. She declared herself to be 'baking' when she came back indoors.

In the winter i open the oven door. In the summer i open the freezer door. :0)

Cross-Country rail putting on speed restrictions and cancelling some services. Here, at the moment, weather is unremarkable.

It's going to be hot, just let everyone get on with their lives how they see fit. Yes a few may die but its probably unavoidable and that's life.
