TBF buildings and general life style are suited to hot weather in the Med. Here in Roast Britain our houses are hot when it's hot, cold when it's cold, and siestas aren't allowed.

drat right it's taps-aff weather.

I mean, not for me because I'm a goon, who would prefer to be indoors.
And not for anyone I know, because none of us are football hooligans or white van men. (These groups are not mutually exclusive, and are usually mutually inclusive.)

But the weather can be fairly described as "Taps Aff".

Most people don't, tbh. Economic development of the South didn't really start until the TVA started providing cheap electricity so people could afford air conditioning.

Some people seem to thrive on it, though.

My great grandfather was one of those people. He would sit on the front porch in the heat and eat raw hot peppers.

This was after his shift at the foundry.

PS: God bless President Roosevelt and the TVA.

Kind of lost in the other news today, some of the papers are reporting predictably the payments for the Grenfell families turned into a poo poo show when the one place they could collect the £500 from over the weekend ran out of money. Some people got as little as £20 to last them until the other centre reopened today.

:biotruths: but I heard somewhere once that since (on average) men have a higher muscle to fat ratio than women we men get hotter quicker, and women feel the cold more. So cranking the aircon on can leave lady officemates feeling uncomfortably cold even if it's perfect for the guys.

And while I sympathise with the plight of my sisters, I gotta say ladies that you need to take one for the team and wear a sweater so we can get the cold air blowing. The alternative is me working in my underwear and aint none of y'all wanna see that.

I've been swimming this weekend in the ponds on Hampstead Heath to cool off; the Men's pond was great, water all clear and fresh, and I'm assured the Ladies' pond is also delightful. The Corporation of London might have pissed thirty million quid up the wall on earthworks, but a happy side-effect has been the improvement of a vital free public amenity.

I think people tend to go to places with dry heat instead of this ridiculously humid heat. Dry heat is lush, just feels like you're surrounded in a lovely warm blanket. Can't get enough of it.

I sweat like buckets in this uncomfortable humid heat though. Although saying that I still love the heat so ehhh.

Lot of people in my office have mysteriously discovered reasons why they have to visit our 16-degree 25% humidity data centres. It's genuinely lovely, like jumping into a cool stream. Then you start shivering and your eyes hurt and you start to go deaf but all of this is still preferable to the satan's armpit that is the supposedly human-rated bits of the building.

And although I mentioned it before, my commute home despite being clad in leather and bestride a big lump of metal with fire in it is *still* preferable to the tube.
