Hate it. Mosquitoes are crazy as well, got bites all over my legs, though that's probably from walking the dog in the woods in the evening when  its cooler.
Got a car showroom to do tomorrow in and out, dreading it. Its always hot in there even in mid winter, I still have to wear a mask inside as well so tomorrow will be unbearable.

Love it but having a/c (air conditioning) in the van helps and so does going home to a/c is beautiful.

We have a twenty year old portable air conditioner which is quite noisy but works well. I have it on the corner of the stairs with the exhaust going out of the stairway window. I have used a shaped Gardiners pole box to duct cold air to our bedroom.

It's bliss.  ;D

I had planned to take last week off but looked at the long range weather forecast which predicted a heatwave, so took this week off instead……..bliss!

one of my customer showed me a cooling tower she bought off amazon for £50 yesterday...i was really impressed with it...currently ive got a desk fan and all it does is blow warm air towards me as the room is so hot so i ordered one...most had sold out but managed to get one for £65...getting delivered tomorrow.....

the only relief im getting is when im driving as i have air con in both my van and car which makes a massive difference in this weather

Hasn’t been too bad really. On a big college all week, will have the outsides boxed off by lunchtime tomorrow then 2.5 days on the inns. Record week and most likely a record month  ;D ;D

Since my second covid shot I've been having great difficulty In controlling my temperature.
It seems I'm not alone either.
I don't normally have a problem but it seems that no amount of factor 50, hat and water is working.
