If you can't take the heat...

06.30.04 (6:43 am) [edit]

There’s lots of talk about a heatwave. Apparently the temperatures have drifted into the 40’s a couple of times, and it’s not supposed to do that till July (but isn’t that tomorrow?), so things must be amiss. The government have “taken measures” this year after the fiasco of last summer. (37,000 people died as a direct consequence of the heat…still can’t believe that number!) So, what have they done? They have put supermarkets and cinemas on RED ALERT. Yup at a given signal all old people are going to be rounded up and taken to air conditioned supermarkets or cinemas. You can just imagine it…”Morning Mrs. García, come on now put your teeth in and get your bikini on, you’re off to the cinema again. What? No dear it’s Van Helsing today.”

With water being in such close proximity, why don't they all go down and swim?

We're close to the coast here, but the poor buggers in the middle are six hours away from a beach.

It's strange what types of solutions the government comes up with. At least they are doing something, I suppose.

Over here we don't believe in global warming because our current administration says it's hooey. Apparently they haven't pulled their heads out of their hineys long enough to take a good look around!

I hope you find a good way to deal with the heat! Ta ta!

Aha! Then I suppose that the malls and theaters are the only solution. I wonder what the elderly and infirm are doing in Iraq with us wiping out the infrastructure of electricity?

I agree, we definitely get hotter weather in the summer down here in the westcountry too! Joolie xxx
