Presume you will also go back to the office when it gets cold so you don't have to turn your heating on?!

Absolutely! Or just sit in a hoodie and hat

[whoareyaaa]

I don't mind this weather if you're not working or near the coast.

[PAULCFC]

Sooner be near the coast!

Would we even be British if we didn't say "This summer has been shit, could count the hot days on one hand"

 

Then two weeks later go "Too fvcking hot, can't stand it"

 

 

I'm already calling the next moan in about 3 or 4 months will be: "Half an inch of snow and this country comes to a standstill" 

 

Sort 'em out @Jattdogg

Give it 6 weeks and they'll be moaning about the clocks going back

Oooh, I do hate that time of year though.

 

You not noticed it already? Don't it get dark early?

Yeah, I hate it too. I get so down and fed up. 

 

I think I might have SAD

 

Symptoms of SAD

Symptoms of SAD can include:

• a persistent low mood (tick)
• a loss of pleasure or interest in normal everyday activities (tick)
• irritability (tick)
• feelings of despair, guilt and worthlessness (tick)
• feeling lethargic (lacking in energy) and sleepy during the day (tick)
• sleeping for longer than normal and finding it hard to get up in the morning(tick)
• craving carbohydrates and gaining weight
• difficulty concentrating(tick)
• decreased sex drive (not relevant at my age)

For some people, these symptoms can be severe and have a significant impact on their day-to-day activities.

Lol

 

We have had 3 days this week of being in low 30s but the "feels like" was in low 40s. Yesterday was still hot but not as hot.

 

Today, its 15 celsius and over the course of the morning/afternoon will get to 24.

 

Every morning this week ive droped the kids to school walking in baking heat. Get back home a hot sweaty mess. Looking forward to dropping them off on 15 today

 

To be fair though,  we have had a shite summer in Ontario in terms of rain and being cool. Sooo many days were low 20s or maybe mid 20s which made beach going tough with the great lakes being cold. Both lake erie and lake huron were bloody cold. Think we didnt have 1 day in august that went into the 30s which is typically unheard of. 

 

I might moan if its tooo hot (feels like 40s can do one) or when it's  -25 (feels like -35) but i enjoy weather of all seasons.

 

Just got to embrace the 4 seasons and enjoy what each one has to offer or fook off to somewhere its 22 celsius all year (high and low).

It's a great time of year for a heatwave. Kids back at school so you can go out and enjoy it. For me anyway 😀

Plus, it's cooling down in the evening and not oppressive and disturbing your sleep.

big dilemma in this weather, work at home and melt or go in the office which has air con! 

 

 

 

Run a cool bath and work laying in it. Might advise some swim shorts for those face time meetings mind.

My bo11ox get awfully sweaty.

But I prefer it to shivering in the cold.

Obviously. Just been thinking that. Probably because some idiot had said otherwise 🙄

Happy hottest day of the year FTers

Mother in Law + barbecue...blinded by smoke

 

A possible fall onto said barbecue?... 

 

Tastes like grilled pork, apparently.

 

Job done.

This weather is the pits!!.. Rather a cold winter day than this shit!!

Lovely to be able to finally sit in your garden late into the evening for a change mind.

I went searching but I swear there was a "sleeping in this heat" topic that came back round every year. According to the search function it doesn't exist. 

 

I know about misremembering but to create a false memory of a topic on Foxestalk is sad even for me!

Not only that, I was the last person to ever comment and it was in relation to my underwear. 

 

Not my finest hour....
