sooooooooo HOT!!!!

[Chrissy1]

I'm sooooo HOT! it feels like it's about a million degrees....even in the shade and there's nothing I can do to cool down. I feel like screaming.

I've had cold drinks, ice lollies, ran cold water on my wrists and had my feet in a bucket of cold water, had three fans all blowing on me too

Anyone else got any tips on how to try and keep cool.

I feel even more sorry for the poor dog than I do me. He's panting away like mad in his little fur coat. I've taken to following him around with a brolly to keep him cold

ok so this is going to sound the opposite of what you want to do....but have a warm bath (cool ones just make you hotter once you get out) stay in it for a bit, then get out, lay a towl on your bed and just lay there on it. it should cool you down a lot, as the air is cooler than the water temp in the bath.

i know the feeling im melting here too, looking forward to the kids bed time so i can lay on the bed with the fan on.I suppose we would be moaning if it was raining but a shower would be nice
