WHAT hot weather?

I always drink 2 litres of water a day anyway along with tea and coffee so for the 2 days of hot weather will be fine.

Be careful not to overhydrate.
I drank a large bottle of water in a short time the other day and didn't replenish my body salts. Ended up with a pounding headache.

I have a bottle with me all day with another in the fridge ready to go. I probably drink 5 cups of tea as well.

I am drinking a glass of water before every other drink i would usually imbibe; morning coffee, fruit tea break mid morning, after lunch coffee etc etc. Glass of water first.

It has the advantage that I do not forget to keep my water consumption up because, as I make one of my usual drinks, the glass is on the side in view and it reminds me to drink some water first.
