TWQ: Heatwave Activities

As there is a heatwave going on in Britain right now, TWQ (the Weekend Question) asks you what you do on these occasions.

What do you do when you have a heatwave at home? List as many as you wish.

My answers are:

* Close the curtains

* Stay indoors as much as possible

* Drink cool drinks

* Sweat a lot at the office as the air conditioner there is useless.

As you may have guessed, I don't like hot weather too much when at home.

Now it's over to you...

  6. Well I rather like the heat, especially since we only get a few months and it's back to the cold in Chicago:
    1. Go to the beach

    2. Eat Italian ice

    3. Carry a parasol or sun hat to keep the sun from blazing down on me.

    4. Go on a boat ride

  11. Hey J-L :-)

    I was coming over here anyway, but Bilbo added an extra push!

    I hate intense heat as it causes problems with my allergies.

    So what do I do......?

    I pity my cats - if I'm hot, they must be sweltering in fur coats!

    Stay indoors. If I have to be at an event, I wear thin linen and stay in the shade as much as possible.

    Drink LOADS....

    If it's crazy hot and opening the french doors doesn't help - I push the buttons on the fan.....

  13. I kind of like the heat! My answers would be: go running, take a long bike ride and work in my yard -which is basically the play by play of last weekend.
