rogets Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 If you are unable to swim then please don't jump into deep water Why is there not guildance, how are people going to know how to stay safe? With hiking becoming popular in summer why are there not signs advising people to not stroke the bulls? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As usual, you come up with some gems of non-wisdom and stupid questions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a sign recently in Derbyshire that read, "Do not cross this field, unless you can do it in 9 seconds, The Bull can do it in 10 seconds" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna B Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 (edited) 4 hours ago, Hecate said: Met Office amber weather warning for extreme heat for next Sunday (17th): Flippin' Ek, they deal with these sorts of temperatures all the time in lots of countries. And people flock to the mediterranean at great expense to enjoy them! They happen here and some people treat it like a full scale disaster.... If you don't like it, stay indoors where it's cooler with a cup of tea. If you have to work outdoors in it, over a certain temperature you have good grounds (safety at work) to down tools between 11am and 2pm if measures have not been put in place. If we're heading for these temps on a regular basis, (it was freezing for a lot of June,) then we have to do what they do in hot countries and take a siesta at the hottest time, and work earlier or later. It's not the end of the world. We'll cope🙄 Edited July 11, 2022 by Anna B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyrotequila Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Years and years ago we bought an air cooler fan for the bedroom, best £60 I've ever spent. Cold air blowing round the room while you drift off to sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Named storms ? high winds, heavy snow, floods, now heatwaves. Chuffin Ek, A decent summer for a change... Enjoy this lovely weather. Get ready ready for Hosepipe bans.
