Fecking hot here in South Cumbria, lovely in the cab with the A/C on full but getting out is a nightmare.
I definitely don’t envy you in that heat. It’s only 36 here and that’s already uncomfortable.Hell's Bells. Getting the cider up from the garage to restock the fridge is such an effort!
42.6 on the terrace in the shade of the parasol.

Nah, we're ok indoors. the walls are a metre thick stone then a good layer of rockwool underneath the dry lining. We keep one room (the room with the TV) airconditioned. For the dog, of course, we're not snowflakes, and keeping the curtains drawn on the sunny side means the house is a constant 26C at this time of the day. The dark, shadowy areas where I keep the beer has reached the dizzy heights of 22, though. It gets a bit hotter upstairs, but by bedtime, with the windows all open its down to a good temperature even if the place is full of bats.I definitely don’t envy you in that heat.

That sounds better than I’d imagined. It’s 27 indoors here, our walls are a bit less defensive!Nah, we're ok indoors. the walls are a metre thick stone then a good layer of rockwool underneath the dry lining.

It cools down at night to the mid teens. If it didn't, the stone would warm up and it would be like having storage heating on all the time. My lad's in Madrid. a couple of degrees warmer but it stays hot at night. Now that would be a problem. We'd have to drink twice as much.
It's not about personal preferences, Dutto. We all have to make sacrifices for the common good when the chips are down.A big glass of MYO Red Wine, brewed light to about 4% and chilled in the fridge, is going down well!
SWMBO seems happy enough with the current temperature, so life doesn’t get much better than this!
That’s why I’m not likely to spoil the moment by suggesting that I share a shower (see previous by @An Ankoù ) with a nubile neighbour!
:hat:
I guess you can't go shopping in your work vehicle31.5c sat in ASDA car park no A/C in the car, Betty swollock time.
I would be able to get a lot of shopping in it.I guess you can't go shopping in your work vehicle
Looks right good.@An Ankoù
