Joins the likes the sun but not the hot and humid weather... feel really ill with it

 

a few weeks back we had sun but a lot lower temperature and a lovely breeze, that was fine. .or sun on the alps when there's snow glistening in it  tis fab. .this is just cruel and oppressive..

 

Melts into a puddle on my sofa...  then sticks to it so rips skin off when gets up again..

 tis good - would be perfect if the bliddy flies and bugs that the fields attract would buzz off somewhere else 

Yeah, that's the only problem with hot weather. Still this time last years we where under water in some places. So beggars cant be choosers I guess

believe me it is.. . nothing worse than a leather sofa in humid weather if you sweat like a pig like I do... you end up having to peel yourself off it and it really hurts.. 

 

My lounge gets the hottest as well. .I draw the curtains to stop the sun coming in but the blasted window glass heats the room up still. .same as cars get hot on a sunny day even in winter.. .. garden is cooler but I too get bored out there and garden chairs aren't comfy for my creaky joints so sofa, even with skin peeling off problem, is the best place for me cos I have comfyish seat and telly or puter to occupy me.. but I end up in a melting puddle.. 

 

I can;t wait for my hands and feet to feel cold again. . they are all swelled up with heat.. bleedin awful.. wish I had a pool

Olly's post about barbecues reminded me of this email that I got this week:

 

We are about to enter the BBQ season. Therefore it is important to refresh your memory on the etiquette of this sublime outdoor cooking activity . When a man volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events are put into motion:


Routine... 


(1) The woman buys the food. 


(2) The woman makes the salad, prepares the vegetables, and makes dessert. 


(3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man who is lounging beside the grill - beer in hand. 


(4) The woman remains outside the compulsory three meter exclusion zone where the exuberance of testosterone and other manly bonding activities can take place without the interference of the woman.

 

Here comes the important part: 


(5) THE MAN PLACES THE MEAT ON THE GRILL.

 

More routine... 


(6) The woman goes inside to organize the plates and cutlery. 


(7) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is looking great. He thanks her and asks if she will bring another beer while he flips the meat.

 

Important again: 


(8) THE MAN TAKES THE MEAT OFF THE GRILL AND HANDS IT TO THE WOMAN.


More routine... 


(9) The woman prepares the plates, salad, bread, utensils, napkins, sauces, and brings them to the table. 


(10) After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes.

 

And most important of all: 


(11) Everyone PRAISES the MAN and THANKS HIM for his cooking efforts.

 

(12) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed ' her night off ', and, upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there's just no pleasing some women.
