[Closed] "It's too hot"

Calm down, have a nice cup of tea 😉

It is a touch warm though isn't it really. We're not geared up for these extended periods of warmth and to continue with our daily regime.

I feel sorry for those on public transport in these conditions.

I love being warm. I don't see why you wouldn't want to be this warm.

The tea thing is relatively credible, though.

I'm driving to the West of Ireland tomorrow. By Friday, I'll be at less than half the temperature it's been in Bristol today. And it'll be ****ing raining. So I'm enjoying this [i]unbearable[/i] heat while I can. With a cider. 🙂

I'm sat drinking a pint of Wye Valley Duece. Much more effective

Dehydrating. Shite for hot days!

I'm off to the pub soon.

It has a swimming pool.

Midlifecrashes, that's the urinal.

But doesn't the caffeine in tea dehydrate too? (a tiny amount I know)

But it IS too hot . . .

I like these temperatures but it's the humidity that gets me.

Been sweating like Dianne Abbot in a maths exam in the machine shop at work today!

approx' 150K? Blimey O_O

But yes, it is too hot.

Can't. Stop. Sweating.

Anything over 18deg is too hot for me, so yes it's too hot.

James I was too hot at work,but then again I was in full kit in a fire so I've an excuse. And thus you are the bulb end 😉

calm down, have a Solero

You've got a hose.... Use it 😛

Ooh that would be a right sauna lol how's tricks mate

I was just reading in the Metro about some councils sending out the gritters to spread granite dust because the tarmac was melting and sticking to car tyres.

So yeah...

Yeah things are improving and are actually looking up. How are you? Good to see you back around. May have to get over my hate/fear of FB messenger and install it to message you

But doesn't the caffeine in tea dehydrate too? (a tiny amount I know)

Yes and No

The hydrating effects of the mainly water in a cup of tea or coffee outweigh the dehydrating effects of the caffeine.

It's not as good v/v as pure water, or isotonic drinks or whatever, but a cup of tea is better than not having a cup of tea.

Not sure where the cut off comes - does ristretto or espresso dehydrate more than the liquid they provide?

appropriated for use in situations where Rolf Harris type comparisons are no longer acceptable.

ie: everywhere.

+1 for yes it is too hot

Lol yeah I'm not keen on it mate either I prefer instagram these days. Glad all well I'm sound mate if a little unfit and unbike fit but I aim to change that from now on.

Been out for an arduous 1hr 45 mins on the bike tonight, I ha e to be honest it was ridiculously hot! That after a day of proper grafting groundworking has seen me consume about 4 litres of water so far today!

I guess its going to be cold tomorrow and possibly too wet as well

Too hot for me.

But then I don't mind when it gets cold and shitty. Keep thinking I should move somewhere further north.

Bit sticky when at work.

Tank Fly Boss Walk Jam Nitty Gritty, ...........it is Jam Hot

That's why you didn't reply about free tickets... 6 Nations... Lions.... Drinks and nibbles above the tunnel..

I'm assuming houns isn't working in a suit and tie in a south facing office with no air con then?

Thick fog now in North Devon and the temp has dropped 10C in one hour.
I'm missing it already>

It sounds like it isn't that credible to me?

Article says it only works if all the excess sweat you produce can evaporate, but i'd imagine most people are at their upper limit of sweatiness (esp. if it's 34 degrees) already, even more so if you are wearing clothes because you are in an office.

I'm currently amongst some folks who say "I'm mafted" I think it means hot, but it could be slang for any number of colloquial verbalised chit-chat.

Hmmm Chunky I don't want to download it and login to check and look just in case you're not pulling me leg

I was working all day outdoors cutting hedges and removing tree stumps

Got a trip planned for next week so I'm sitting in the garden with a glass of red, stripping/cleaning the bike in preparation Very pleasant. I'm not complaining 🙂

Not get too many evenings like this

The joys of working from home. 4 showers and I've kom'd the freezer defrosting.

Feel free to send me some 'hot'. I love it, and at 15deg its still borderline arm warmer weather here.

I'm gutted that it's set to cool down tomorrow. Have really enjoyed the mountain biking in the warm sunshine 😀

Really enjoyed the hot... and even more so the absence of strong winds. It is unfortunately back to normal gusty conditions today 🙁

Me too, 2 Xc races in 30 degrees in 3 days. 😯

I don't mind being warm but I don't like sleeping on this heat, all clammy etc.
