Title: Now it is hot!
Post by: Varche on 13 July 2017, 23:21:14
We are having a mini heatwave across most of Spain. Quite normal for summer.

Inland Andalucia may have broken the all time record with 47C today.

It is a bit of a cliche but it is so hot you cant even think straight. I even watched tennis!

Midnight and it is 31 degC outside.

Still a bit to go to reach Death Valley in 1913 when it was the world record of 56.7degC, which is according the climate fraud squad lower than the 54degC recorded in Iran. :( :( :( This according to the climate fraud squad is the highest temperature ever recorded on Earth due to global warming. Normal fake news, why let the facts get in the way of a good headline and story which was reported in much of the MSM including the state-owned propaganda channel the Boys Buggering Corporation. :o :o :o

43C a few minutes ago when I checked.

Kevin- cat is out of the bag now! I was thinking of crowdfunding a new BBQ, outdoor beer cooler and some other essentials. Can't see me getting much support now. :-[ :-[

That reminds me of northern Kenya.  After 6 weeks living outside we were cold at night even though it was 30C.  Then someone had the bright idea of organising a little bimble up Mt Kenya.... :o

I meant the lake, of course! Good luck with the crowdfunding project. :y

This "beer cooler" must be some kind of weird continental custom. Haven't you got a cellar? ;)

Is that a northern saying? Never understood the language, and now that the Birmingham Benefits Corporation have moved their operations up there, I can't understand the link announcers at all!

The good stuff is in the cellar. Too far to walk, Something to hand on the patio like this is what I had in mind for the small lager cooler. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/STAYCOLD-HD-1360-HINGED-DOOR-DISPLAY-DRINKS-CAN-FRIDGE-COOLER-1599-Vat-/401349559588?hash=item5d724c4524:g:b4IAAOSwAYtWH28A

Your link didn't SAY it was of northern origin, and one example of its use quotes Spitalfields and as I was born in the East End of London, I know it ain't no cockney expression!  :P
