Do people think bucket hats are weird? I want to cover up my head so I don't get skin cancer so have ordered a couple of bucket hats to see if any of them look ok on me. I have one that is black with strawberries on it but I think it's too dark to look ok, they first sent me one with strawberries with faces on them and there's no way I would wear that. I've ordered from another company a pink one with strawberries and a light blue one with daises.
I put it down on paper and then the ghost does not ache so much.
Don't try to calm the storm, calm yourself, the storm will pass.
I had my food parcel and fortunately the meat was ok. Had my amazon parcel but I have had an item missing . But my new fan came and I have it going rn. There was no instructions and I tried for half an hour to get the base on without success. So I managed to get it on semi properly but it was very unstable. After 20 minutes of sitting down I thought I would have another go and finally managed to get it on properly. So that's a relief.
I am sitting down now with a chilled can of Pepsi max cherry. I felt a bit ill before but I am ok now. According to my phone it's 36 degrees.

I don't know about all the hats you can get. I just don't think I'd get away with a baseball cap. NP you might need to educate me on hats! Were you at work today?
I get so frustrated when I can't put things together. Well done with sorting out your fan, Dawn. I'm glad your fan and juice are helping you feel better.
It's 30 degrees here. It's going to stay hot overnight and have higher temperatures tomorrow. Does anyone have plans on how to stay cool and get some sleep later on?

Caps are really the only hats that suit me because I seem to have a freakishly small head! But I really could do with one that has a brim all the way round. I like the outback style ones (without corks) but I might look ridiculous. Yep I was at work today. Left at 11:30, 45 minutes after I was planning to. It was already 32 degrees. I don't think it got to the temperatures they were expecting in the end. I think we maxed out at 35 here according to the weather station at work
For sleeping I find having a cold shower just before bed helps, like don't even dry down completely. I've slept terribly the past week with all this heat =(
And I'm off to the vets in a couple of minutes.
I hear that Wales hit a new record high temperature of 35ish today.
It was actually 37 degrees here according to my phone.

I think they were saying it was 35.5 mid morning in somewhere in Wales so I'm not surprised if it's gone up.
Other cool sleeping tips - I have one of those "snap" clothes. You wet it, wring it out and then sort of snap it to make it go cold. I wrap it around my neck at work but I might use mine tonight to put it on my head. Could also be done with a towel I suppose but it might hold too much moisture. Also I used to have a little spray bottle that I used to spritz myself with while falling asleep. That was quite pleasant and helped cool my skin a bit.
Back from the vets - more antibiotics and an appointment next week to check up and drain his sacs properly and then he might need to go every two months or so to have them squeezed again. =/
Good tips there np!
Luckily my meds knock me out so the heat doesn't keep me from sleeping!
Poor geordi. That can't be pleasant for him!
The kitchen staff were pretty annoyed for the entire day but i think i would be too if i had to work in a smallish kitchen full of fully fired up stoves/ovens/grills in 37 degree heat!!!
I'm fine! Totally fine. I don't know why it's coming out all loud and squeaky, 'cause really, I'm fine!
Also I recommend talcum powder if you're a woman and prone to boob sweat. Put it on underneath your boobs and on any other skin creases you may have.
Also shut your curtains during this heat. It prevents the heat from coming in. It sounds daft but trust me it works.
