foreveryoung Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 I remember it being 40-45 degrees C, in Cyprus, Ayia Napa for 2 weeks solid, it was great. Maybe just a bit uncomfortable on the night, as never dropped below 30 even when dark. Was a bit younger then though, an the beach was a stones throw away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delboy54 Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Problem is the humidity factor in this country. It amplifies the temperature. In the summer it makes it feel hotter and in the winter it makes it feel colder. A work colleague based in Moscow said in winter it goes down to -30C, yet when he goes to St Petersburg which is near the sea, the humidity is higher and although the temp there in the winter is -20C it feels colder.....!

Did it in Germany 3 years ago for a week I **** hated it, played football two nights in a row in the middle of it, lost half a stone in weight, never experienced exhaustion like it the day after it was pure regret Was also trying for a baby... I wouldn't recommend that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandy Lifeboats Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Our H&S have deemed it dangerous to work in offices without air conditioning during a red warning. Its a 4 day weekend in the sun! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted July 16, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted July 16, 2022 I’m not usually one for moaning about the heat. It annoys me when we finally get some sun in this country and people are moaning that it’s too hot. But 38 degrees in Sutton on Monday is taking the **** piss 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to do double mail today which wasn't great but at least the round is clear now for Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted July 16, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted July 16, 2022 I'm working from home Mon and Tues which are my normal days in the office. Network Rail are advising against any unnecessary rail travel and have warned there are guaranteed to be many cancellations and long delays. I was chaos enough last week so I'm not getting involved in that. I'll stay at home and keep the curtains closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 I've spent the last hour covering my south facing windows with cardboard, and the outside of the doors from the conservatory to the house with layers of blankets. The neighbours are looking at me like I'm insane, but they're the kind of idiots who have their windows open in the day during a heatwave. We'll see who lives through the week. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
