thanks for the sympathy, wanna swap places? i could do with a few ice cubes down my pants to be honest :D yup, im in london.
pretty damn bad down here on the south coast as well. And If it's bad here, I know exactly how you are feeling in london :)
Air conditioning in full working order here :D
All the other offices in this building don't have it, which is great because that's where most of the women are ;)
There's a minimum allowable temperature of 16¢ªc, I think there should be a maximum as well. Let's strike.
i must admit, the hot weather is good for "bird" watching ;)
yeah, strike! strike! strike!
......
ok, strike's over, i'm off home ;)
I'm going out to get an ice cream. Anyone want one?
nullus:

Hmmm bbqs, beer and beaches horzza!
Bonker(s)

TTFN

:eek: 45ºc
Don't think there's much change of it getting that hot here :p
I was at school... sitting in a stuffy classroom where you HAVE to wear your blazer... how dumb is that ?!
It was terrible where I was! Hours north of London... hot hot hot!
We always took jackets, jumpers, shirts, trousers off :eek:
Well...maybe not the shirts :D
At 45C people would be dropping like flies.
Mine is broken in our office too, plus we have a massive UPS lots of pcs/servers close together in a small(ish) office.....it hit just over 43C at one point, but sits around 38C if we have the doors and windows open :eek: :(Quote:

It's gone dark now but it's still hot!!!
Yep, still but much nicer thou :)
Arent' you the same lot that were complaining that it was cold and raining just last week???:confused:
Yep, we're the british :D
LOL:D
30C is cold where i am; most of the summer it's around 38C, at least once during the summer it gets up too 44C. all though the humidity is around 10%
well 30 is positively hot here. Hardly ever gets above that, and I wouldn't want it to either. 24 is nice, anything above (or below) is not.
HAAAAAAAHAHAHA You British keep me in a constant state of amusement!
What it finally broke 10 degrees did it?
Has it even stopped raining over there?;) :p
30 degrees and your whinging pffft 30 degrees is normal but i spose you are English after all and you'll complain about anything.
:)
contrary to popular belief it isn't always pissing it down. It hasn't rained at all this week (which is a major achievment ;) ). And it was about 24 today whch is bonza (which is higher than 10...)Quote:

Check our www.multimap.com for map of england, and loads of aerial photos of cities, quite a cool site.
It's about 96°F here, and I've skateboarded all over the damn city today! At least you guys get to sit in offices with fans or A/C. I'm in California, and we have to save 20% electricty, according to my parents. That means no A/C, all windows open. It's cooling off now, but it's not gonna go down too far. Let me get my little converter out here... 86° there?! That's like a warm day in winter time here! Not the middle of summer! It's 35.6°C on you weird British people's thermometers. hehe. British people are weird!
Blame the French! they came up with metric units. We were fine with pounds/ounces, miles/inches etc until they came along with their kilos and grams, kilometres/centimetres etc.Quote:

It's got half an old castle and stuff if that helps and a port!
Heehe
sorry Devon maybe!
It's even hotter today!!! Bring on the thunderstorms :cool:
you yanks can talk! not mentioning that fahrenheit is totally screwed up, i hardly ever hear americans using fahrenheit when it goes below freezing, you end up using celcius instead! :pQuote:

hehe, here we go again! actually, pounds/ounces came from France, miles/feet/inches came from Italy, and fahrenheit obviously came from Germany. Britain can't do **** by itself. :p most of europe used pounds, ounces, miles, feet, etc. until metric came along.Quote:

That's because it doesn't get that cold in 99% of our country!:pQuote:

*grumble* *grumble*
We use celcius and we have one of if not the hottest driest climates in the world!
You poms complain when it stops raining for 2 seconds geez then complain when it's raining!
And ppl on this site argue with me when i say poms are whingers!
;)
Hot?!? Hot, you say? Aw, quit your whining! It's all relative & could be worse.
When I first got to Saudi for Desert Shield, it was over 130F outside in the daytime. We didn't have thermometers that read over that, so don't know how hot it really was. There was no inside to go play or cool down in. And at night it would cool waaaaaayyy down to 100F.
After a week or so we aclimated to it. But then the night time drop in temp made us feel cold. I'll go to my grave remembering the look on the sweaty faces of the lads arriving at midnight from Europe (where it was 80F) and their seeing us running around with wooly caps and parkas on shivering because we felt chilled to the bone with night time lows in the mid-90's.
Of course, we were 101st Airborne (Air Assault!) and we were nuts anyways. ;)
Round 2:
Got here originally, before I got out, via a "short tour," barrk.
Otherwise, like to keep my inside the walls visits limited to as
few as many hours as possible. :p
So, Mongo..................err......are you "in" Leavenworth or just stationed there????;)
