I don't know if it was purely the weather, or the second COVID jab an hour earlier, but I felt the life being sucked out of me as the afternoon went on.
From what I've heard, it's probably best to avoid strenuous exercise for a day or two after a vaccination as your body concentrates on building up your defences. Sounds reasonable to me, anyway.

I have largely been taking it easy this weekend, mainly because I find it unpleasant to do anything strenuous in 30+C heat. Preparing for distrubed sleep as the upstairs of my house is estimated around 28C and it is forecast to not drop below 18C overnight. At least I only have to deal with it for a week.

Lucky for you!! but it just shows how people really do register temperature differently. I slept easily last night ;)
It's cold/damp weather that I don't like as it makes my old bones ache and in this country, I have to deal with that kind of weather for months on end  :(

It was a lot easier to sleep than I had anticipated. Left windows open all night, slept on top of duvet, and house had cooled to 21C by morning. If you suffer in cold damp weather you have my sympathy, that sums up three quarters of the UK's climate. You must have been fed up in May/June this year, two consecutive wet months in SE England, at a time of the year the weather is normally pretty good .

Very hot and only an occasional breeze.
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.

After a really lovely morning, we've got black clouds coming over and distant rumbles of thunder  :nowink:

So is this the typical end to a UK heatwave?  It was good while it lasted    8)  :lol:

Send it up here MoS, it's so bad I've had to dig out a pair of short I bought in the 90's, and nobody needs/wants to see my legs  :ohmy:

Nice outside at 7am, a clean heat - still hot but fresh. An awful night though with a low in the bedroom of 27c even with the windows open and a fan running.

Much harder to sleep last night. I did do some weight training at the gym late evening (amazing how many people are training at quarter to midnight) which meant I couldn't leave the windows open all evening, so my house was more stuffy than the previous night when I went to bed. I'm not going out this evening so will be able to optimise the cooling.

Once again, scorchio
Watering at midnight last night so it soaked in rather than burning off in seconds.

Another hot day, not as hot as yesterday, though!
There are a line of thunderstorms that seem to be tracking Eastwards, just to the North of us, we can see the clouds, hear the distant thunder - but are getting none of the rain  ::) It's a shame, it would save me having to water everything tonight  ::)

Unpleasantly hot, sticky and not nice.  Dog walked at 5.00am, no second walk till temperature drops.  Storm last night with lots of thunder but not much rain.
