[MintyGreenDreams]

I'm on sofa with some Ben and Jerry's.Ive got my neck fan on and it's lovely.
Ds 8 is sat naked In front of a fan eating grapes
.

Exactly what I've been doing all day.
On my bed, fan on, cold water, frozen towel and yelling "drink some water" at my sons every half an hour.

Lying on my bed with the windows fully open, a lovely breeze blowing through but still thinking 'shit me its hot today'!

I'm sat in the living room, have got the windows and curtains / blinds shut on the side of the house that gets the most sun and it's nice and cool.

I got a bit hot walking to school and back (about 45 mins round trip) but have cooled down now.

Sitting on the patio under the gazebo with the cat listening to the bastard wind flapping the gazebo material all over! It's lovely and warm though. Everyone else is in the house, dh in the sitting room watching tv with the new fan on, ds2 in the house somewhere and dd in her room (it's cool in there) with a dressing gown on saying she hates the heat 🙄

Sitting in my pants on the sofa with the fan on me, with the dog - who’s determined to play! 😁 It’s lovely and cool in here

I'm lying on the beach reading MN.😁

Reading Mumsnet dipping my feet in the paddling pool with an ice cold drink

WFH but sitting with feet in bucket of cold water with ice cubes added. Surprisingly bliss.

I've just been for a long sea swim, had a cold shower and washed my hair. So now I'm sitting in a shady part of the garden, with damp hair and a bottle of water I've just taken out of the freezer. It's lovely

Lying on the sofa in my pants eating a mini Callippo.
Having to remember not to walk into the kitchen because the men on scaffolding on the roof behind can see in.

Sitting by my fan watching the cricket (womens one day international England v South Africa.) wondering if my Tesco delivery will be on time this early evening and feeling pretty sorry for the delivery driver and anyone else having to do stuff in the heat. Scrolling Mumsnet obviously.

My phone thermometer app says it's currently 35.8 degrees here in SW London

Very envious of you sea swimmers.

Sat on the sofa with the baby, trying not to wince as my son gets water everywhere while he splashes around in the paddling pool.

On a deathly Teams meeting. Door is open, it’s warm but it’s not as roasting as I was anticipating.

Laid out on the settee with a fan going full pelt,and a cold drink

Sitting under the oak tree in the garden watching the babies play.

Not long got out of a cool bath and eaten an ice pop. Mumsnetting and considering cooking dinner then getting in the paddling pool with the kids to cool them down before bed.

Sitting at my desk with a fan pointed at my face and a cold can of Pepsi, trying to thrash out the fifth chapter of the book I'm writing.

I usually work outside under a parasol, but was driven inside by noon today. Too damn hot out there.

Sprawled out on my sofa with the tv on and trying to get DD to drink some water.

Lying down on the sofa looking through social media after just hanging the washing in the garden. Need to do some more work later though.

It was bloody gorgeous, I must say. The main local beaches have been heaving but the smaller bays are pretty quiet. We're very lucky.

Hanging around my (relatively cool) kitchen in my flimsiest pyjamas, catching up on some tv, trying not to eat all the crisps and relishing the fact I’m not working this week.

Sitting outside enjoying the sun and warmth after being at work all day ☀️

Work admin with a fan on, interspersed with some gentle pottering about indoors. Self employed so I can work when I want - very little today tbh. Will go outside shortly and top up the bird baths with cold water then phone an elderly friend to check up on her.

Sitting on the sofa working my way through my various ice cream options, mumsnetting and very happy not to be in my 39 degree garden 😲
