Are Gransnetters glowing in the heat?

I ordered a tower fan today, for delivery Wednesday. It even has a quiet nighttime setting with a timer, so you can sleep easily but not have it on all night.

Also lots of ice in my freezer, for iced water to drink.

My garb yesterday was shorts and sleeveless top. Today it’s capris and short sleeved top?. Not keen on skirts. Quite like dresses though.

Someone mentioned wearing a skirt - last summer was very hot here and I noticed that many of the large women had discarded their tight jeans and gone into skirts.

A much better temperature forecast today at 20c+ . I can garden quite happily and sit and relax in that temperature, but at 31c yesterday afternoon we just sit indoors with the blinds pulled and windows wide open for a through draft. Too hot for me.

It was about 18-20 degrees in our garden yesterday afternoon, pleasant but hardly tropical. The problem with being this close to the East Coast is we tend to get the cool breezes straight off the North Sea.

It seems that yesterday's tropical weather in East Anglia was a blip and it's much cooler today.

It hit thirty seven degrees in our conservatory yesterday with the doors and windows open! Too hot to sit outside, too hot to sit inside! I dug out my shorts but was almost tempted to wear ⚡️☄️ a skirt?!!! Hope today is going to be a tad cooler.

Where are you Ellan?

Lovely sunny day 34° this afternoon according to car thermostat. ?
Going a bit cloudy now.
Weather forcast for tomorrow is about 24°.

My DH is lying on the bed trying to cool down, i am sitting in the lounge with the windows opened and the curtains closed trying to stop the sun shinning in, who would have thought!!! Ive just had a cool shower and put on a halter neck dress to try and keepcool.Our Bowls match was cancelled this afternoon as opposing team thought it was just to hot and a bit dangerous as some players quite elderly. Well into the 30's here today. Can't imagine how those in Europe are coping with the mid 40's.

I don't feel I am glowing at all. The exhaustion of being in a high humidity garden has flattened me.

Only 18 degrees here.

It's been a lovely couple of days here in sw Northumberland. My husband and I went out to a local trout fishery for lunch, then a walk round my old home town. We took the scenic route home, through the little country lanes and villages. The temperature has been a pleasant 23-25° which is just right for me.
The sun has gone now though, and clouds are building, the forecast is for thunderstorms later this evening, we will see. I may close the windows shortly as the scent of barbecues is in the air! ??

The heat has reached the north of Norfolk. Although it’s probably cooler on the coast still, we’re twelve miles inland and its 36 in the sun and 29 in the shade. Lovely sitting in the garden under a brolly with a glass of chilled white spritzer!

Not quite sure why Marilla needs to wear an ‘old grey T-shirt and Eric Morecambe shorts’, she doesn’t say but it sounds horrendous?. Unless of course she is clearing out the shed or doing some heavy gardening!

Still very hot here in the West Country, not a breath of air!

I've got a sweatshirt and socks on and have just had a hot chocolate. The breeze is quite chilly here in Colchester.

I’ve been to Legoland in extreme heat, it’s definitely not fun! But they do have that big water park, so make sure they pack their. Swimsuits

I suppose at my age I shouldn't be wishing the summer away, but I hate it. I hate being too hot, I hate summer clothes except on the young. Longing for autumn and winter.

My young grandchildren are going to Legoland Windsor tomorrow and I feel worried about them in the heat.

I was looking forward to this week’s supposed heatwave. It’s sunny and dry here in north Bucks but that wind is still chilly. Will it hit 30 tomorrow? I wonder.

Only 16C this evening here in south Cornwall, with dull skies and sea mist. I don't think we will have the hottest day of the summer tomorrow, as is forecast for the rest of the country. Thank goodness, I really wilt when it's hot and enjoy autumn and winter - though I don't enjoy the heating bills!

It is bloomin' hot in the East Midlands and I'm all shiny and sticky. Uncomfortable, but that's all.
You can put loads of layers on to warm up in the cold but I find it more difficult to cool down.
I'm alive so I won't moan.

Come to the east coast folks. I had a hot water bottle in bed last night!

Wroxham on the Norfolk Broads reached the heady heights of 18 C at two o’clock this afternoon! (It felt chillier in the breeze!).

It should warm up a bit over the weekend though to a proper English summer heat.

I started the afternoon in a pretty linen dress, strappy sandals, floppy sunhat felt pretty good if I’m honest

Off to end of term open air concert at one of my granddaughters school, boiling hot, holding youngest granddaughter slick with sun cream, enduring her big wet kisses, hair sticking to me, dress looking like a dish rag.

Well at least I tried

Boiling hot here, iced water,curtains shut to stop sun heating up the room, cold shower before bed.

Buying a tower fan from JL tomorrow, one with a quieter sleep option.
