Fozzie Posted July 19, 2022 Posted July 19, 2022 Good morning! Yesterday I remarked on people sat outside in the sun, drinking tea/coffee. Paved area acting like a frying pan, 35 degree heat. Proof we are living in a simulation surely? Glitchy behaviour like that, who'd drink a hot drink on a day as hot as this? Turns out, my entire team at work does. But what baffled me was they were complaining of the heat while sipping a 70 degree drink. I just can't get my head around it, I was freezing bottles of water all day. 1 Quote
MikeHorton Posted July 19, 2022 Posted July 19, 2022 My wife's Maltese family swear by hot drinks in a heatwave! Some studies have been done which say your body cools down quicker after a hot drink. Others say it doesn't matter either way your body regulates its own temperature. However I wouldn't disagree with my crazy Maltese family thsy are always right so they say 2 Quote
S-Westerly Posted July 19, 2022 Author Posted July 19, 2022 Well I'm currently drinking a strong hot coffee and thoroughly enjoying it. I also don't find it that hot as I spend a lot of my working life in temperatures well over 40. That said I sleep in air conditioning with a temperature of 22. 1 Quote

If two people can sit side by side on a bus and there is a central aisle with another two seats on the other side , how come it can fit down the same road as a car where I can touch both doors at the same time ? This was spoken with a reasonable degree of sincerity by a female who appeared convinced that " They " had written the code incorrectly . That being said , I can summon my cat by telepathy . ( Sometimes ) 2 Quote

Mississippi Bullfrog Posted July 22, 2022 Posted July 22, 2022 Since it is raining today I'm on my wet weather project. I found an unopened tractor and trailer in my box of bits. 2 Quote
Guest Posted July 22, 2022 Posted July 22, 2022 Building work well under way. Whoever did it before proper bodged it. Under the old conservatory is all old paving slabs and holes. Started taking out some horrible steps in the garden and found the outside electrics all met in a taped up jewsons bag. Quality. Quote
