Holmes_and_Watson Posted June 28 Posted June 28 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c4gd31g56d3o "Carrie Johnson has warned mothers who breastfeed to make sure they eat and drink enough in the summer heat." Good advice for any woman who finds Boris Johnson attached to a breast, to keep hydrated, as they call the police. 🙂 1

It’s not the actual heat I mind, it’s the humidity. Not at Singapore levels I admit, but it ain’t pleasant to be out and about in. Give me spring and autumn over summer any day.

In this country, a key difference I first noticed in 2018 on holiday in the Lakes when the WC was on, was that the peak of the temperature was 5-8pm, sometimes right up to 9pm like it will be today. And it was really hot that year, 35-40. It has to be hot to make Cumbrian roads melt. I’m fairly certain for most of my life, the heat mellowed by 5pm and you enjoyed a lovely temperature in the evening to be outside. Or am I imaging this?

It's up to you to tell everyone in the station, that the water bottle isn't just for carrying. There's a cap at the top of it that comes off, and you should sip the contents. Be sure to tell everyone not to drink it all at once in The Heat. Don't be a SOG, stepping over collapsed Parisians. You can save lives, Turkish! 🙂 1

Remember that one well, I was based down in Goodwood and can recall the fields being scorched due to the heat. I've said it before on the climate change post but it is really getting hotter, one farm I work with notes down the temperature and rainfall every day and has records going back to the mid 1800's. As well as heat we're experiencing heavier periods of rainfall too..
