I was 16 stone a few weeks ago, now down to 8 stone 1, the same as Micheal Jackson was.
Now where's my pills?

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

Just think of the money, Roger

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

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

Just imagine  vacuuming the linings of curtains in a south-facing room!





With the sun shining



In a heatwave

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?

[Mike Osbourne]

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

It's all relative. 

[richy27]

[Mike Osbourne]

Were you a whingeing pom there as well? 

Possible thunderstorms down our way tomorrow  ler

[richy27]

its gotta break up with some thunder really will get rid of the humidity.

Mike iI used to work as a chef and in the summer of '76 it reached temperatures of 120 -130,used to take salt tablets .

[clinton]

Think that was the really hot summer..

Must say i too go through a few shirts in a day in this hot weather.

[M.Acorn]

Was a 6 yr old in 76,went up to Graffam resovior,it was like a desert ! Working in kitchens was also not fun,severe case of chef`s arse.

Hi Guys

Did my A Levels 76, went to the outside pool for about 3 weeks prior to exams, with books and never looked at them once 

Cheers

Doug

p.s I think it going to get a lot hotter this summer yet !

[Dennis]

I did my A levels in 76 too. 

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

[murky]

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.
