Had to take my mum to the Freeman today. It was 23.5 with a nice cool breeze at the coast, pretty perfect really. Driving ip Beach Road and then the coast road the temperature kept going up. In High Heaton (appropriately named) it was 34, more than 10C difference over the distance of 8 miles. Honestly found that heat, with no noticeable breeze, almost unbearable. Took the kids to Paddy Freeman Park and my youngest was like a dog locked in a car, poured a litre of water over her to stop her getting heat stroke. Drove back, and it's now a lovely 21.5 here. Gennuinely feel for you guys hitting 40. We're not equipped to cope with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven’t found it too bad tbh, sat in van most of the day went to Devizes near Swindon this morning then down to Romsey..had to speak to IT there so was sat underneath a shady bush in a car park rather than sit in the boiling van, someone turned up to park and shouted at me to move, how was I to know I was squatting in a disabled parking bay trying to keep cool whilst speaking to young Zak about access to Cascade HR app?

Ayatollah Hermione 12767 Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 This heat is really not on, like. Getting absolutely brayed with constant warm blasts of air to the point where the pints of water I’m having can’t keep up. Bring back 13 degree summers, I say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34441 Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 Had to have one of my cats put to sleep this morning. Shite times. He got diagnosed with heart disease three weeks ago after I spotted that his breathing was funny. Anyway he's been on three types of tablet since then but they weren't working as well as hoped, and that was that this morning. I got woken up by him crying and when I came downstairs he had lost the use of one of his front legs (blood clot) and his breathing was fucked. That was at 4:30 and I was leaving the vets at 5:10 so it all happened quickly which was good. Ugh. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
