What are you avoiding doing in this heat?

32 here in Oxon! Too hot for anything....wish I was abroad with a lovely swimming pool to cool off it. Have washed sheets and towels - it all dries v. quickly in the sun! Otherwise - I'm slobbing out.

I do the least as possible in this heat

Well, we needed to pop into town this morning to do a few necessary jobs but this afternoon I’m sitting in front of the fan indoors looking at GN. Oh, I hung some washing out when we got back - that’s about it on the domestic front today.

My lounge is open plan and has stairs in the sitting room, with a large cupboard under it. I stupidly decided to clear it out today as I have been reading the de cluttering thread.
I should not have started as the heat really got to me, but too far in to stop. I have recycled alot, I have bagged up some candles for my daughter, and got rid of things that had broken.
I am now psyching my self to put things in the bin outside. Glad it's done but wish I had not started.
I have put out washing made the bed and wiped down the kitchen. That's my lot for the day.

I’m on holiday in remote Devon by coast. 3 mins walk to lovely beach. Swimming everyday, sitting in shade on deckchair. Suits me

I've been farming for over 60 years. Now widowed. I am having harder and harder time hauling, splitting and stacking firewood for winter. In this heat I try to get up early and work for an hour or two. Don't work outdoors much past 9 a.m. I love it but have to be much more careful now!

I put some washing on and then went to my kit-fit class. I came back to get my purse and then went to Tesco's and looked in the charity shop. I came back and put the washing out with another load in.

Too hot to garden!

A friend has invited me for tea. I am taking a cake so will drive instead of walk. It’s 31 at the moment and I’m melting.

its all so boring is doing nothing

Almost everything hahaha

I have a package awaiting collection from the shop down the road. I stuck my head out of the door and decided it is too hot to go now. It is 31 degrees, but cooling down later. Maybe I ‘ll go later as the shop is open till 10pm but thundery showers are forecast at around 6pm which should cool things down.

Oh well done you, whilst I love the countryside, I simply couldn’t do or cope with what you farming folk do! Total respect

Sorry last message for GrannyFirstLight x

Not just thundery showers but huge hailstones - S Yorks 4pm.
refreshing unless you were out and about unprepared.

I hate you - that is my idea of heaven. North or South?

Cossy

Almost everything hahaha

I got back from East Beach about an hour ago via the seafront road.

East Beach was rather civilised, once you got past Ocean Beach it was horrendous, hundreds of people everywhere…

Its cloudy and 14 degrees in Aberdeen!

Pretty much everything actually. We had to go out this morning and we were both drained when we got home. Same again tomorrow too but my appointment is set for 8.15 and hopefully I can be back home before the heat becomes intense.

London. 32 degrees. Stifling! I'm working my way through the Saturday and Sunday supplements sitting on the tiles in my shorts in the north-facing kitchen and doing nothing else.

Housework, s far as humanly possible.

Everything.

I couldn’t do nothing today 😬, had an optician appointment in town that went well apart from being told I have a cataract in my left eye that’ll need doing in a year or two.
Then home and housework before going to the hospital for the dermatologist to excise a basal cell carcinoma from my left shin.
I have 10 stitches and an impressive dressing! It’s still numb from the local anaesthetic….
It was unbearably hot here at home, we’ve had some thunder and a few drops of rain.
DH has gone to the fish and chip van 😋

Nothing! I love it!!Been sitting out reading my book. Loving every minute of it

Flippinheck

Great excuse to avoid housework. I am comfortable couched with a cold drink and on Gransnet for now. My cat doesn’t know what to do with himself.

🐱Poor thing. Make it a couple of
little dens in l shady, cool areas inside and inside. Use a fan if poss as well to cool it down.

I have still not collected my parcel as it keeps raining on and off. I wouldn’t mind a bit of rain but don’t want to get caught in a full on thunderstorm.
