Re: too darn hot
Thank God I'm not the only one moaning - I really don't like this weather, it's way too light and too hot to sleep at night not to mention too noisy with the windows open. This weather sends the cat more loopy than he usually is - all that and no football - bring on autumn

Re: too darn hot
Think yourselves lucky... I am on nights and have to try to sleep during the day in this heat
I love the warm weather though and feel like I have more energy when it's warm. I'm sure that I wasn't meant to live in this country and would be far more suited to sunnier climes.

Re: too darn hot
If I can cool my feet the rest of me is happy. I have a little water spray to spray my ankles and a fan direct at my feet at night. Hot feet keep me awake and hot feet make me feel tired.

Re: too darn hot
To keep cool at night......wear cotton nightwear...have a tepid shower before turning in for the night.......fill a 2 litre drink bottle and put into the fridge, take this to bed and pop your feet on it during the night......if you can cool your feet the rest of you usually will stay cool.
Those are my tips for keeping cool......oh, I also take a moist face cloth with me to bed and moisten my limbs...this mimics perspiring and keeps you cool.
For those of you disturbed by the light......a blackout blind does the trick...or the cheap version is to wear the nightmasks that they give you on laong haul flights.

Re: too darn hot
I love the warm weather, thouigh I guess I'm lucky, as I was able to cool off this afternoon, by swimming half a mile in my Mum's pool.
It's going to go cooler on Wednesday.

Re: too darn hot
Way to warm and sticky for me so I am hiding indoors away from it. Rather have the winter temps any day.
