MUFC Posted July 17, 2021 Posted July 17, 2021 Anyone in the UK been hit by hayfeaver? I've not had it for years. But the last couple of days it's been horrible. It seems to start around 5.00pm and from between 8.00pm and 11.00pm it goes into overdrive. Quote

Yes, I have tablets I have to take on top of my COPD & Asthma pumps and if the temperature goes over 30c (86) then that knocks me for six, I end up getting migraines and that is one of the reasons I had to leave Australia and go back to a cooler climate thus Scotland/UK, in Aussie land, I used to get an acute migraine attack in summer times and had to go into a dark room and lye face down as my head thumped and I had dizzy spells. 1 Quote
Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted July 17, 2021 Subscriber Posted July 17, 2021 Just had a video call on this laptop from Facebook from a friend who lives in Michelbach, Rheinland-Pfalz, me and the wife were worried about him, his wife and his young son but it was nice talking to them and they are ok, he is originally from Croatia but has settled in Germany now for the last 8 years.

Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted July 17, 2021 Subscriber Posted July 17, 2021 Just got back from shopping and it's not too bad at 23c, some cloud but I have ended up sneezing a bit as some neighbours are cutting their lawn and hedges so that is the flat window closed and I have taken some hayfever tablets, I wish to fuck they would hurry up with their cuttings so I can open the bloody window again.

Subscriber JoshBRFC+ Posted July 17, 2021 Subscriber Posted July 17, 2021 The whole of the UK tonight? Quote
MUFC Posted July 22, 2021 Posted July 22, 2021 Curious to how much water you all drink when it's hot? In UK we had round 30 degrees weather. I usually drink around 1.5 liters per day when not training. During a training phase I up it to 3 liters. These last few weeks it's been 5 liters per day. I fill my water bottle up before sleeping. Last night it was so humid and muggy. I necked 1.5 liters in 40 minutes. Quote

Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted July 31, 2021 Subscriber Posted July 31, 2021 Bloody strange weather here, for the last few days the forecast has been for heavy rain, thunder & lightning but all we have is very cloudy and humid was the odd drizzle. Quote

I mentioned in here before I had to leave Australia and come to a cooler climate because anything over 30c then I would get an accute migraine attack, the hottest I have experienced out there was 48c in the shade, yuk.

Definitely better than -30, fuck that Quote
Administrator Stan Posted July 31, 2021 Administrator Posted July 31, 2021 I don't think anyone likes -30. Bit too cold probably. Quote

Definitely better than -30, fuck that I love the snow and cold, the best experience I have had in my life was a skiing exercise in Bavaria in my army days, we were working with the RAF where rhey would drop recruits by parachute into the snow below and they had to escape to a certain point, it was called 'Avoid or Capture'. A few managed to escape or avoid capture and the ones we caught we had to blindfold them then march then into a barn and make them stand against the barn wall and not say a word, if they did we would hit them with our rifle butts, not a big hit but a nudge and they had to wait to be interogated, all part of their training to join the RAF. There was us all rugged up to the high heavens and they were standing there shivering their bollocks off as we took their jackets and scarves off them. 1 Quote
Azeem Posted August 9, 2021 Posted August 9, 2021 (edited) My favourite & worst times of the year Best 1. October to mid November, hottest plains of the country have a nice moderate cold weather and the snowy parts are a delight to visit. 2. February to early May, best weather for outdoor activities 3. December, living in too hot weather makes you appreciate greyish cold at times. Worst 1. July, August to early September sometimes, there is no refugee other than air conditioners. Sweaty, rainy, humidity with heat that can suffocate you. 2. Late May to June, heat is tolerable if you have a simple cooling fan but outdoor activities are almost impossible.

Administrator Stan Posted September 30, 2021 Administrator Posted September 30, 2021 Wow. I can't even begin to imagine how I'd feel if I was just going about my day and then suddenly something like that rocks up. Quote
