This hot weather

[MrSwerve]

May as well make one final 'grumpy old man' thread before the board disappears!

Anyone else hate hot weather like this? Uncomfortable to sleep in, birds tweeting at effing 4am, roads are mental, going in to most offices without A/C is hell. I can't wait for it to cool down again.

The only time I don't mind this weather is if I'm sat by a pool for a week.

I'd take Oct-March over the summer months any day of the week.

Sunshine automatically means beer must be consumed up and down the country.. proper Britain.. then you'll have the Europeans sipping wine at night while they all eat at 10pm.. plus they all drink water religiously.. whilst we all indulge in binge drinking.. uppa UK!

Not ice cold water though it’ll get into the holes in their teeth and give them toothache.

Heat exhaustion for those that do physical work is no joke. Ah just noticed who the main contributors are, never mind, as you were.

If I may put a slight mitigation in defence of binge drinking Brits, In the Uk we have a few days of really nice weather, and then that’s it! Where as in comparison to the other countries, they are more or less going to be basking in similar temperatures all summer long that we in the Uk have now, till most probably late September. IMO nothing wrong with a few beers out the back, and a little bit of music. Look 7 days in advance and the weather is about to drop to 17 or 18 degrees, plus rain as well.

Some people don't know what it's like to have fun.

Nothing better than sinking a few cold beers when the weather is like this.

Just admit you've got a problem, the first step is always the hardest etc.. Dr's have categorically stated, hydration.. not drinking 20 pints and complaining you're f*cked the next day.. on holiday, go for it.. drink the sea.. but millions in this country will be at a public house or 5 cans of strongbow/lager a night in the house.. because I'm a big tw*t

You've got drink drivers galore on the roads these days an all.. I know a bloke who drinks about 10 pints up the bingo and drives himself home.. drink a pint and then drive, but he's guzzling 10!

You should inform the police before he kills someone.
