How do you live with that sort of heat? Is it high humidity as well? Our 40.3 = 104 was just bonkers. The overnight temperature wasn’t much better.
Rain tomorrow and then rising to 30C by Sunday for the south east.

with difficulty. seriously.
when the humidity's low and there's a breeze, it can be 100 and not terrible though i'd still not be outdoors in it. When the humidity's 50-70% or more, it's a nightmare even at 85 or so. It IS extraordinarily hot, though, at the moment and even H and his mum are feeling it. When the hot weather kicks in we mainly do stuff outside early in the morning and just before dark, and draw the curtains and blinds where the sun's shining in. I am feeling the heat about 20 degrees earlier than they do, being natives of this land
It's pretty here...loads of trees and rolling hills, ponds and a stream.mostly rely on fans and a.c unit; we can't have his mum feeling cold though... she's 99 and you know what it's like for old folks, they feel cold especially if they're sitting down a lot. There are days i have to just make my clothing wet to feel cooler. Autumn's still my favourite but it comes a lot later and is warmer than in London, and winter temps have fallen much lower than I ever saw back in london either!

France, Spain and Italy are still dealing with 40C it’s going to take a lot to reverse current trends if at all.
I saw a fan in our holiday rental that was good and bought it. I was fully expecting to get a serious moaning at, but I got away with it when it proved so useful last week.
The scenery does sound very nice, we need a picture please.
No I’m not interested in those cold temperatures either, you can keep them, lol.

here are 3, gotta go through my files. the back of our property is a tree-covered hill (we're on a hill but the back rises even more steeply past the pastures), and when it's rained the whole hillside can be covered in thick mist from the breathing trees. One day last winter, we had some rain then a really cold snap overnight that froze the raindrops. In the morning, when the sun hit the trees there, it was blindingly beautiful, afire with light and all colours as the light refracted. Amazing stuff.

Tha UK thread just got amazing, thank you for sharing. What a wonderful place to live. Even if it’s for about two weeks of the year when it’s neither too hot or too cold.

That does look amazing. I like the Facebook group “view from my window” where people post their picture. Makes the world a smaller place.

The Dutch goalkeeper saved ten French attempts. But they lost to a French penalty.
I'm sure France hit the woodwork a half dozen times too.

oh, no, lol... it's wonderful a lot longer than that. i don't mind the cold, either!
it's just me bitching about these summer temperatures.
oh, the last trees pic (reminds me of dinosaurs or summat) was from up the hill a few autumns back.
the footie?
today... supposed to me currently 93, with 49% humidity and a feels like 101. Well it's 101, 70% humidity, and lord only knows hot it feels.
Still, at least i can be indoors and not stuck outside in it though i did pick a few gallons of veggies today, tomatoes and pattypan. H had already got in the other kind of toms and some remnants of broccoli that escaped the bugs

a few more...
a view of the hill out back beyond the gardens and pastures
looking downhill from the front porch
the little garden pond
the entire footprint of the house and front/back garden i lived in UKside fits a few times over just into the fenced veggie garden here. I know i'm really lucky; the chiggers, fire ants and even small black ants that bite all come with it free, too
i enjoy taking snaps with my phone and my tiny brit garden was pretty nice, too.
anyway, there are benefits and drawbacks wherever one lives, i guess. Remain everlastingly thankful the UK still has a National Health Service, seriously. It's insanely expensive over here. Make sure brits never lose it, despite various governments trying to ruin it!

i know, it's been undergoing a stripping of its assets, including staff, due to pay, hours and more, especially since thatcher sought to largely dismantle it in favour of people going private. The pay and hours saw so many good doctors and nurses leave the UK for America, for instance, in a brain drain. Combine that with the cost of housing and the sold off council houses not replaced at the promised rates, and now covid? I'd not want to be a nurse OR a doctor

Neither would I, an ex partner worked for the NHS, she was a cleaner and you can genuinely make more than she did by delivering takeaways.
At the beginning of covid I had an assessment over the phone with a psychiatrist to start my autism diagnosis, it was an 18 month wait then, they can't even give a time frame in YEARS at the moment.

18 months... damn, that's even worse than my own son's wait (autism, too) but that was GP, phone, in the flesh meetings after referral. Probably 6-8 months altogether. Pretty sure it was less than a year. I hope you're getting all the support, and taking avail of it, that you need.

The gp side was done in under an hour, 6 months or more for the referral to go through and get a telephone appointment, they sent me a leaflet of phone numbers but that's it.

I hope you have some family member you can discuss things with if you need to.
My son, 30 this year, had problems... still has, but he found the more he learned about his condition the better he understood why he felt or reacted the way he did and the more i learned from and with him helped us understand eachother better, too.

I can relate to that, I'm 31 and I want to understand why I react like I do, my reactions can get pretty extreme, when my car broke down a few months ago I broke my hand punching a bus stop, not my greatest move.
Unfortunately my family are super toxic but I've got people I can talk to if I need to, I probably should talk more to be honest.

Talking, even if it's electronically (my son's favourite means as he's uncomfortable around most people, too much input/stimuli) is really helpful as becoming even more isolated can be harmful to your overall appreciation of life.
Try to always use good, reputable sites, not the crazies like 'vaccines cause autism'. My kid was 19 when i was able to persuade him to see the doc because he honestly believed they'd be zapping his brain with electricity and shit like that to 'test him'. Best stick with government health sites for the medical explanations but look for autism spectrum support groups online. My son learned he wasn't dumb (no, i never called him that as he was super smart in some areas but the simplest things evaded his reasoning) but just learned differently. Even now there are things he just can't wrap his head around that seem simple, but then he's dealing with so much more brain-input than most as he has a very heightened sense of the visual and sound. That's the reason he prefers no eye contact except with people he knows well, not because he's shy or doesn't like people... it's just too hard for him to be able to stay in the moment because he gets lost in the whole colour/striation and expressions of people's eyes!
nice talking with you here
gotta go now, so have a good one.
