Here in the West Midlands it’s currently 31 Degrees.
I actually can’t handle this heat.

I took a bottle of frozen water with me to work today & by midday it was lukewarm.

Also this heat has been a terrible excuse to validate my mid-week drinking.

@Fight_Teza_Fight No moaning, we hit 38 today. At least, it was 38 when I checked it a few minutes ago, don't want to think about how high it was earlier this afternoon...

@Octane 😱 If it ever gets that hot I’m blowing off work.

Anything over 23-24 degrees is too hot for me.

@Fight_Teza_Fight Anything that hotter than 'yeah, you'll be alright without a hoodie' is too hot for my taste!

Fortunately my office has tundra-like air con... the journey home though...

38 degrees is cold people, not deathly cold like some claim it is, but it's definitely not warm... Crazy Europeans

@Jaz007 that's 38 degrees Celsius... 100F

@Jaz007 Nah, it's the weather. Thinking is difficult at the moment

@Jaz007 No Worries... I was just left thinking "does he not realise that it's just too hot?"

If it's too hot for a cup of tea - it's just too hot

Do the British have A/C in your cars?
(Forgive the random questions, I’m fascinated by this apparent lack of preparation for the elements. 😉)

Edit: oh yeah, you folk don’t drive cars, everyone rides in those red double decker bus things like in Harry Potter don’t they?

@Th3solution There are many a British lady and gentleman equipped with motorcar contrivances; they do indeed often arrive equipped with atmospheric persuasion systems...

@KALofKRYPTON Lol, that’s good. I was starting to wonder if the imports of the Aston Martins and Jaguars here to the states not only had to add mph gauges and shift the steering wheel to the left side, but also included adding superfluous temperature control systems.
So, the solution to the summer heat wave is clear ... spend your day in the car.

@Th3solution we use mph as standard. It's a non-straightforward heady mix of imperial and metric measurements for pretty much anything and everything.

Eg. You'll think of your fuel and tank in terms of gallons but buy it in litres. It keeps us sharp when it comes to boozing - where standard in use pub measurements range through gallons, pints, carafes, ounces, litres centilitres and millilitres.

@RogerRoger "... our culture?' Ouch.
We're certainly not perfect, nowhere is. But there is far, far more culturally vacant - or indeed bankrupt than we.
