BR ToXsicK Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Dont get me wrong' date=' I'm all for blue sky's and pleasent days, but its just that taking two kids and two bikes in the car(a greenhouse on wheels today) to have a ride at a park, something we do often, today, for me, was an unenjoyable, sweaty nightmare ![/quote'] I cant stand working in it but I love it on my days off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blade73 Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Being a ginger, I spend the hot weather scuttling from one bit of the shade to the next. Give me a brilliant blue sky in January when I can wrap up warm and walk all day with a freezing cold nose. :¬) Being a ginge is a state of mind! I am and I love the sun and can even get a tan, for everyone its just a case of knowing your limits and enjoy the outdoors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harleyman Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 I dont understand why do some people complain of heat and spend time in tanning parlours? Because they're anxious to get melanoma in later years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melthebell Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 we dont have to worry about the heat now, its a bit nippy and very cloudy, with a sea breeze just took the dog out and was just wearing 3 quarter length trousers and a tshirt with the sleeves cut off.............my bloody hands were cold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upinwath Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 I moved house a few days ago. There swimming pool is two doors away. Works for me. I'm a kind chap so I may pay for the two maids from time to time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amaranthus Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 It's not just the heat now - it's those horrible insect invaders that you can't see until it bites/stings you! Myself and my better half have had some bites - looks like a tiny red pimple - you think there is a spell (splinter) in it so you try digging it out and then the bleeding starts. Today the swelling starts and then it struck me it's the same insect (well not the exact same one) that bit/stung 6 years ago that led me to go to the outpatients/walk-in centre at the Hallamshire - the bite from 2 days before had become extremely itchy and a deep pink spiral went around from the lower leg to the upper making it extremely painful - had to have a tetanus booster and 400 mcg paracetamol for the painful leg (which was being hobbled on by this stage) - so beware those little nasties and eat indoors of an evening - unless you smoke a pipe with that lovely herb tobacco like my dear old Dad used to do! I accidentally discovered that if you leave a glass of orange juice out they're fatally attracted to it. Just leave one nearby and they might leave you alone.
