Ooh! Ooooh! Me me me! Me! I am dying of death!

At least when you're cold you can pop another layer on, but when it's too hot and you took all your clothes off, what's next? Taking your skin off? Huh? I vote against.

That's not really effective and they're sold out too. In spring I looked at a good one but didn't buy it because I didn't want to spend so much money. Now of course they're all sold out. I hope I won't be that stupid again next year.

Same here. When looking to buy one during colder weather you look at the price and think: "Nah, that heat wave won't be so bad..." ... and a few months later it IS that bad.

Here it isn't only that bad, it's way worse. Holy shit, I'm dying.

[–] wingedassault@feddit.uk 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Haha, "next year" like this is the last of it. I like your positivity.

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

They become available again once it gets colder.

If you're smart you'll wait till off season when they go on sale and snag one up.

Nah nah nah we need to start with passive cooling first, where I'm from houses all have proper shutters that keep the heat out in the summer and the warmth in the winter. I just don't understand why it's not standard in the UK. Oh wait, that might have to do with your windows that open the wrong way round......

All I want is simple really, a 16° bedroom with a 10.5 tog duvet, all year long. What do you mean it's not realistic???

Sold out 😒

[–] Im_old@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

a lukewarm shower. Possibly with a friend, to save water of course!

I'll ask the cat if she wants to join the fun. She is not enjoying this weather either.
