Title: Re: It's going to be a scorcher!! Post by: Sark79 on July 17, 2006, 10:51:44 AM I was suppose to be working this morning in the greenhouses, but luckily my days were changed. After that I went a quick run before it gets too warm and this afternoon I might go to the beach with the dogs or out on my bike.

Oh to work in air conditioned buildings... Title: Re: It's going to be a scorcher!! Post by: Sark79 on July 17, 2006, 10:56:45 AM I went to the beach yesterday at Irvine, it was seriously busy. It isn't very nice when there are thousands of people ( on my beach :D ). The kite surfers, horses and motorbike neds spoil it. Both my dogs are talented footballers and when there are so many people we can't get a decent game going
I may give it a miss today though Title: Re: It's going to be a scorcher!! Post by: Graham C on July 17, 2006, 11:40:37 AM Just working today. Well, I'm at work. It's too warm to get too busy. I have to drive to North London in a bit so I'll get the air-con on and some nice tunes for the trip.

Title: Re: It's going to be a scorcher!! Post by: Heid on July 17, 2006, 04:40:44 PM So after lobbying the boss for the last 5 months "we need air con - we're in a green house ffs" (I work in the BDC - a big conference centre with glass all over the roof), I get into work this morning and we have brand new beautiful air con...
.....but the internet is down at work, been down all day, so i just had to come back home to no air con to work :( Title: Re: It's going to be a scorcher!! Post by: Sark79 on July 17, 2006, 04:53:17 PM I work in greenhouses at a horticulture place. We grow various plants. Fotunately I was off today, but normally it is extreamly hot. I always wear shorts and T-Shirt and normally change at lunchtime into fresh clothes. There is an old guy that works there who wears a woolen jumper and combat trousers even in 36+ c Degrees heat. He has no sweat pores, in all the time I have been there I have never seen him sweat a bead. I want to try and get him to enter a tournament for the "Person that sweats the least in the World". He could be a World Champ, unfortunately he doesn't own a passport and these kind of events are normally abroad
Title: Re: It's going to be a scorcher!! Post by: Royal Flush on July 17, 2006, 04:54:57 PM I have been doing my head and money in playing HU SNG's so now i am off for a drink!

Post by: Trace on July 18, 2006, 07:58:44 PM I only managed to stick it out till 2:30pm yesterday, when I had to come home sick.
Running a temperature and sitting next to a window didn't help me any. All Ive done all day today is lie on my bed completely washed out. Title: Re: It's going to be a scorcher!! Post by: Royal Flush on July 18, 2006, 08:31:05 PM I decided to play football today, smart idea when its 34, lol

Seriously - I've had my heavy duty fan on for 48 hours straight now; upped it to setting #2 for the first time and I'm still baking. Title: Re: It's going to be a scorcher!! Post by: Lee on July 19, 2006, 06:13:11 PM I decided to play football today, smart idea when its 34, lol Is the playstation struggling with the heat too? Title: Re: It's going to be a scorcher!! Post by: Sark79 on July 19, 2006, 07:42:01 PM Does anyone know a decent Witch? I was thinking about asking the woman that lives along the road from me to make it snow tomorrow. She claims to be a White Witch, whatever the hell that is :D. I am not sure how good a Witch she is though, but she does own all the gear that a Witch is suppose to have, so she can't be that bad at the job. Her Broom has a B$Q logo on the handle though, so I am not sure it allows her to fly.
I am going to put an order in for heavy snow at 6am tomorrow, this heat is too much. Hopefully the spell will work. However if it doesn't work, it may just get hotter and we don't want that do we Title: Re: It's going to be a scorcher!!

I'll send her an email Sark, and see what she can rustle up for you (though I don't know how powerful candle magic is, over the weather!) Title: Re: It's going to be a scorcher!! Post by: Sark79 on July 19, 2006, 10:30:08 PM :D Thanks, my Witch was watching Eastenders and couldn't do the spell for me tonight
Title: Re: It's going to be a scorcher!! Post by: matt674 on July 19, 2006, 10:42:19 PM I used to know a girl in the army who practiced Wicca - to be honest i didnt really talk to her about it much, not really monkeys thing - just in case they wanted to borrow a part of my anatomy for a spel!! :o
Title: Re: It's going to be a scorcher!! Post by: Trace on July 20, 2006, 09:07:29 AM Rain, Rain, Glorious Rain.
Title: Re: It's going to be a scorcher!! Post by: matt674 on July 20, 2006, 09:29:33 AM It wasnt glorious when it woke me up at 5.30am when it came battering against the windows - only for me to realize that most of them were open to try and get some fresh air circulating!!
Stumbling around in the dark half asleep trying to close them all before drowning isn't monkeys idea of fun first thing in the morning!! Title: Re: It's going to be a scorcher!! Post by: Sark79 on July 20, 2006, 10:15:39 AM I told you didn't I, the weather was going to change. I finally got in contact with my Witch last night after she had finished watching Eastenders.
I asked her for snow, unfortunately she didn't know the spell for snow. Instead she offered heavy rain. Title: Re: It's going to be a scorcher!! Post by: Trace on July 20, 2006, 10:28:24 AM If I hadn't of been so out of it at 6am when I realised it was raining, I'd of gone and danced in it!

Don't know what time it started or what time it stopped, but I slept with my curtains open and it was my Dad's van that woke me up - bloody noisy thing, when I looked out of the window, cos I couldn't identify the other strange noise, it was yellowish outside and very wet.
