Shock @IHaveBrilloHair

We still have our bloody winter duvet on our bed. I just said to DH I only want a sheet on tonight.

Away you all go. It’s drench and freezing 51 weeks of the year, let us lizards enjoy our one week of heat. I’m only sleep in g with one duvet this week, usually I have two Shock

Dreich (stop auto correcting my lovely Scottish words)

Thislittlekitten · 16/07/2021 18:45

I’m really struggling in this heat.
I still managed to burn my legs even with sun cream on.
I can’t get a thing done except eat my body weight in ice cream!

IHaveBrilloHair · 16/07/2021 18:47

Poor Dd goes from blue to red and back to blue.
I found an old photo of me and her Dad the other day, both of us with lovely tans.
God knows who's skin she got!

Wbeezer · 16/07/2021 18:50

It's at this time of year that my draughty, high ceilinged house with thick stone walls comes into its own, no need for air con here! Lest i sound smug, we freeze all winter.

Bloodypunkrockers · 16/07/2021 18:55

I'm loving it

No holidays for
The second year in a row. I'm sitting out until midnight and enjoying the warmth

IHaveBrilloHair · 16/07/2021 18:56

Dd said that about her last flat.
It was great for a week each year, other than that it was fucking cold.

NoYOUbekind · 16/07/2021 18:58

I've put ice in my wine!

DH is out and I keep shouting over to DS 'why is it so hot'. He does not know and is now very irritated with me.

I'm so hot.

messybun101 · 16/07/2021 19:02

24 in west Fife today but I swear it's been 27+
28 week preg and looking ill cos it's just that bit too hot for me to enjoy it I can't get any colour in my skin
I'm sat looking like that Marshmallow Man with a chair at the door begging it to cool down

It's toooooo hotttt
the80sweregreat · 16/07/2021 19:02

I hate the hot weather !
Bring back the nice cool / rainy days.
I just know it'll be unbearable by Sunday !

GreyhoundG1rl · 16/07/2021 19:05

We've been promised 30° by Sunday (London). 😡

messybun101 · 16/07/2021 19:05

But, sun sun don't go away. Please stay for another day

If it was dark cold and pishing down I'd be wishing for the sun

GreyhoundG1rl · 16/07/2021 19:07

But, sun sun don't go away. Please stay for another day
Happy for you to hog it all to yourself if you're outside London!

HarrisMcCoo · 16/07/2021 19:08

Hate this heat. Just can't tolerate it. Dog walking done before 9am.

Icannever · 16/07/2021 19:08

Loving the sun but only when I can sit in the shade and look at it or get in the sea for a swim. And when sitting on my decking with a gin and tonic

Wbeezer · 16/07/2021 19:16

I've actually snoozed some Scottish travel Facebook pages and some friends who are of to Highland beach holidays as we can't get away due to DHs work and I don't want FOMO from seeing people enjoying that rare and almost mythical event of the Scottish holiday with lovely weather. I dont want to see lots of pics captioned "it's just like the Caribbean".
My total for three years is 6 nights away and a day trip to Kingussie!

Horehound · 16/07/2021 21:11

We've had loads of sunny days here @sweetkitty! I think it's been a good summer so far. Can't believe you use two duvets normally!! Lol

But today is just toooo much.
Sons bedroom is 24 deg. It's 9pm and 22deg outside. I know I'm not Gona sleep tonight!

Might have to have a cool shower before bed actually.

I mean I do love the sun but I am also pregnant along with a pp, it's tough!

If it was dark cold and pishing down I'd be wishing for the sun oh same for sure. But I'm too hot to savour it right now! :D

@Wbeezer oof that's tough. We had our honeymoon 2018 and that was our last holiday abroad and haven't been away either except a long weekend in Oxford :s

Pregnant again and I can't be doing with the faff of taking little ones away anywhere abroad so no hols for us for the next 1 or 2 years probably.

This thread has just made me rewatch farmer Jim it's so hot sketch again. That sums up DH today here!

ApolloandDaphne · 16/07/2021 21:47

I live on the east coast of Scotland. It is usually beautifully cool at all times. The last few days have been like living on the edge of hell. I am wearing minimal clothing. It is TOO HOT.

Horehound · 16/07/2021 21:55

Yep I'm also east coast. I'm in Montrose!

SuperLoudPoppingAction · 16/07/2021 22:14

Oh that's close to where I was swimming- Lunan Bay. It was coooold today but loads of folk were in the water regardless.

It definitely rids me of that horrible lethargy I get from the hot weather.

I think I've melted the elastic on my bra just from radiating heat.

Ladylunchalot · 16/07/2021 22:17

I'm loving it, straight out on my Lounger when I come home from work. Total utter bliss lying in the sun as it reminds me of foreign holidays which are now a distant memory.
Hoping it lasts for a good few weeks, my tan is coming along nicely Grin
