Not looking forward to extreme heat

Homebird

It is just about reaching as hot as I can bear, towards the upper 20s. If we get extreme heat for a few days I get through it by thinking that it will be over soon. At the moment next week is predicted to be around 30 all week and often the prediction gets higher as it gets closer.

I like to be outside at least some of each day, but I am not sure there will be much that is bearable. 

I am hoping they have got it wrong and it reduces sooner than Monday week.

  • Thames water and other companies may have a hose pipe ban. I don't know if this has come up. We also now have a drought. I was looking at the Thames water website and they have exemptions of people who can use a hose pipe. A neurodiversity does not seem to apply, but someone might have other conditions that might. I don't have a garden but I water at times a place of worship garden.. I have osteoporosis, a physical impairment with my joints and neverse and mild kidney disease so seem to qualify on that to use a hose.
