I'm not a fan of the heat. I sweat more than Rafa, even in the middle of the winter.Grin Apparently the last time it got this hot was indeed the summer I had dd1.

MrsVamos · 30/06/2015 21:53

I'm the same. I'm sure that at 39 (and prior Blush) I'm having hot flushes - early !

Got some good deodorant but my word someone needs to devise an all over sweat-preventer, or at least slow-downer.

I try to drink plenty but wonder if its counter-productive !

I'm not looking forward to bed tonight.

Reckon it will be far too hot. I'm daft with that too. Hate sheets, have to have a duvet covering me, stick bits of body out but then get chilly, then too hot again.

I love the heat - sorry, but the hotter the better for me.

I hate to say it, but I miss John Inverdale on the roof - the 'Today @ Wmb@ programme is shite. Utter shite.

Tomorrow's play does not look exciting on paper (as it were) but I expect there will be some great matches.

Bring it on!

Raahh · 01/07/2015 07:23

Morning all.

Our internet is playing up. This will not be good if it continues.

BagelwithButter · 01/07/2015 08:30

Morning hotties Grin

Laughed when I read last night's posts:
yes to being good at spelling but doubting some words now
yes to not being able to bear the heat but could lie for hours on a beach when younger,
yes to having to have one bit of sheet or duvet over me even when hot
yes to thinking Martina's had some work done
yes to an all-over sweat preventer (took DD to college open evening, boy, I was sweltering 5 seconds after leaving aircon in car.)
yes to missing John Inverdale (we didn't know we had it so good with him!!)

Enjoy today's games Tennis

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 01/07/2015 08:32

It's raining down here if it moves through you might get your wish.

Still too hot though. Why can't my flat have decent insulation and temp control. 25 degrees in the living room at 6.30 this morning. Parts of it have been 9 all winter.

Not working today so hopefully should be back earlier to watch some tennis.

Raahh · 01/07/2015 08:47

Well it is warm here, but a bit cloudy. Dcs packed off to school stinking of coconut sunscreenGrin .

I had a slept with a bunch of ice packs last year( always have several in fridge, in case of migraine). I hate having hot feet. Grin

The Internet is still down. I am go I g to have to spend hours on the phone to Virgin, aren't I?Angry

Looking forward to today, must take the dog out before we both get too hot to care Grin

Mama1980 · 01/07/2015 08:57

Morning all Smile
I'm with you magi I love the heat, but I live in cottage that was built during the wars of the roses it is always freezing even in these temperatures (wattle and daub walls Grin) it's hot outside though and clear skies at the moment.
Not sure how competitive some of the matches today will be. I should get to see the start of Djokovic before we have to head out.

Mama1980 · 01/07/2015 08:58

Fraid so Raahh hope you can get it sorted asap.

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 01/07/2015 09:29

Yes you are Raahh.

Mama, my mums house is 13thC and built of solid Guernsey granite. She's probably watching the tennis with the wood burner on even in this heat. Grin

The80sweregreat · 01/07/2015 10:56

Raahh, good luck with 't internet' - getting anywhere with internet providers can be hell. Hope to see Novak later on. Going to the supermarket later on for some air con and hang around the freezers!

Mama1980 · 01/07/2015 11:59

Grin Clay I only stopped lighting ours last week.
Great start from broady.

purpleprincess · 01/07/2015 13:08

News.....this might cheer someone up (can't remember who?). Nishikori has pulled out with calf injury.....

Raahh · 01/07/2015 13:09

Have finally managed to sit down. .
Broady not doing so well . Goffin appears to be trying to grow facial hair. He does look about 12. Grin

GrouchyKiwi · 01/07/2015 13:09

Yo peeps.

Good luck with the Internet, Raahh. Loads of empathy here.

Need to look at the oop before I decide what I'm watching. Broady on at the moment. Looks like he started well but has lost confidence.

Raahh · 01/07/2015 13:10

purpleGrin Grin Grin Grin that has made my day.

I am not a Nishikori fan- for no real reason at all!

Raahh · 01/07/2015 13:13

The internet seems to be working. Which means Dd2 is entertaining herself .

It is now very warm, but really cloudy, am hoping we get a nice storm later. Although dh is due to umpire a softball match. Can't play in a thunder storm- metal bats Grin

purpleprincess · 01/07/2015 13:14

May I just share something amusing with you all about the Stan nekkid pics....my DM texted earlier to say that she'd seen small pic in the paper and that she would save for me. I said not to worry I'd already seen it online. Her reply was....

is it a bigger picture? Grin Wink

Raahh · 01/07/2015 13:17

Will hopefully get to see Djok, and Stan today. Bonus match now with Cilic being moved to centre.

Raahh · 01/07/2015 13:18

Raahh · 01/07/2015 13:19

oh look, Mac has decided Niemenen has already burnt himself out. After 3 games. Grin

GrouchyKiwi · 01/07/2015 13:22

I'm finding it hard to watch the TV. We finally put up curtains in our lounge (we've lived here for 6 weeks) and I keep staring at them. I might go stroke them soon.
