It's making my chocolate melt. I'm having to tear pieces off the bar, not snap them.

Ugh, I hate clothes in this heat!


The solution is simple - I am fairly cool at the moment.

Wrap ice in plastic, like suran wrap (sp), about 24" long. Wrap the ice in a light weight towel. Place this over the shoulders. Now you go out into the heat without over heating your pretty little head.

Oh I'm disappointed now. I thought this thread was about me being unusually frisky ;)

My son has bought 2 'Chillows'...he swears by them for a good nights sleep. I think they are an American invention.

Well, I'm loving it, the heat that is, but then it's probably not as hot down here as it is up north.

It is too flipping hot in Ireland as well, bloody 28 degrees yesterday and I live inland, I'm not a big fan of this type of weather, I prefer my weather to be a little bit more chilly, call me cold blooded, but thats my way!

It's been overcast here bit still 88 degrees F. There are rumbles of thunder at the moment, but the air is stifling and still.



You going shopping in Truro in a bikini Betty ? What's Theia wearing ??;)

Since I'm currently working from home, I find that a bikini top and boxer shorts work the best in this heat.

I just hope the doorbell doesn't ring :p

Way to go, Cher, in the heat!

Shorts and tank top are good enough for me, I think it is 88 or so down here too.

Okay, you wear your bikini, I'll use my credit card as a fan

I often wander round the house and the top half of my garden in the buff, so I have to hang a pair of shorts on my front-door handle as my memory aint what it was :o
