I'm in heaven!

I wouldn't have thought having a remote would have made such a difference.

But the only place to put a fan here is behind furniture.

Now no over reaching, or stubbing my toe trying to get to the controls.

Just bought another one!

Anyone else moved into the 21st century?

JaneJudge We’ve recently bought this one from Argos:

Challenge Digital Grey Tower Fan - Product Code: 454/3604 - just shy of £50.

It’s really good, quiet, has various settings and has a remote control. We’re really pleased with it.

I’m waiting for a posh tower one too, delivery tomorrow.
Just as this hot spell is due to break ?

There was a tip on Jeremy Vine this morning - to create your own 'air con' you can fill empty milk cartons or plastic bottles with water, freeze them, and stand them in front of a desk fan.

It won't look very swish, but it's not a bad idea ?

I like that tip Doodledog I did something similar with frozen peas, but they ended up in a mush far too quickly grin
