Anyone else melting at their desk currently?

Had a major wardrobe crisis this morning as had no nude tights and legs can't go out unadorned. Couldn't face black tights for obvious reasons and I normally wear dresses for work as its just easier. Took me ages to out decent trousers and a top. Sitting here absolutely melting - need a fan emoticon

Pasty white legs murphys. I know I should embrace them but I just can't quite bring myself to.

It's 23 degrees at the moment, highs of around 27 today with some rumours of 30 degrees in some areas Shock

(Whispers) I'm working from home and I'm not wearing a bra. Dignified summer dress, of course. One time wear this year, no doubt.

I may be able to get rid of my corned beef legs for a while. You're probably see my pasty white legs in that photo if you squint hard enough. Just south west of Cork city Grin

I m sitting in a Dublin park while the kids have their tennis lessons and the baby sleeps, under a sunshade ... IN DUBLIN, imagine. . Rooted out an old bottle of Sally Hansen for my legs this morning. The phone tells me it s 24 degrees!

21 in the north east. We have every fan in the office on and all the windows open - no such thing as aircon in this building!

Mid west here. I've no idea how hot it is outside, but I've had to put the air conditioning on in my office for the first time this year.

I drove from Belfast to Wicklow in a car with no air con yesterday. DC took their t-shirts off in the back of the car. I was this >< close to following suit.

Thankfully I work in an old stone building, so it's actually relatively cool today. Don't fancy venturing out for lunch though.

I'm not at work as still on maternity but yeah, roasting here too.

I'm wearing a sarong and vest top and bare feet. It's funny how something that seems perfectly acceptable on holidays feels totally wrong at home. Oh well, I'm fecked if I'm putting on leggings or skinny jeans today Angry < my face

Ihate, take water and see if you have a lolly or similar at home. Or if there is a lolly emporium within walking distance. I want a lolly.

32 in Birmingham and unbearable.

I've been in the garden with LO for half hour or so. Back indoors now and feel like total crap.

I may be able to persuade DS that she's tired and crash!

This is Ireland - 23 is a lot of degrees! And it's not raining, which is a shock in itself.
