Hot work?

Bring it on!!!

Exercise in a sauna. Fantastic!!

Great way of getting fit and loosing  weight.

But I hate working in soggy overalls for 12 hours :o :o

Just think of the money, Roger ;D ;D ;D

Actually one of my theories is that the hotter it gets the busier I am.

The hotter the temperature/humidity the busier I seem to be. :)

IT'S NOT FAIR! :( :(

Then we have flash floods and drops in temperatures-more work!!

Offices have left their windows open and now we have flooded carpets to dry out. :'( :'(

Just think of the money, Roger ;D ;D

Jees it hot.....I know.
Just as well I'm on me holidays in Dorset. Too hot to sit out in sun  ;D
Makes me remember one summer a few years back doing a 12x10 rug inside a conservatory. Never again.

Guys:

Think about this.... Today I cleaned a hsl for a pensioner. The lady had the heating on! I kid you not.  Never experienced heat like it.

Thank damn I was wearing a thin cotton shirt.  It was very humid and dull with practically no breeze. I wonder how that would affect drying times?

You lot are soft. Just imagine working in a kitchen or a foundry (if there are any left)

It's all relative.  :)

I did my A levels in 76 too.  ;D

Wasn't that the summer of the plagues of greenfly followed by ladybirds?

Summer of '76 working in Torquay, beard, hair, driving a Willys jeep with the screen and roof down, thought I was dead cool.

All night working in the clubs, all day on the beach recovering from the night before. (Wink, wink.).

PS. Never go back its not the same.
