I wish I had some tips for you but I am struggling as well.
Work is a nightmare because I work at two heat presses which kick out 200 degrees of heat each and then at night I am forever tossing and turning because it is too dam hot.

Then again if it was raining I would also be moaning! LOL!

I'm not too bad today because it is ovely and sunny and ther is a little breeze, but the last 2 days at work have been awful as I work on a hospital elderly ward without a/c and no fans allowed. Our uniforms are hot and its hard physical work!
g is going for storytime at school this afternoon and its up a steep hill-I think we'll be going very slowly.

i'm coping terribly! i'm a bridal shop manager and getting girls in and out of dresses is proving interesting i can tell you. i do have some relief in my broomcupboard office though (only slightly mind!) then of course it's the glorious public transport and walk home - oh joy!
i've closed all the curtains in the house today in the hope that when i get home later it'll be like a fridge.

Coping?!?... No esp during mammoth bd sessions! We have a 3 storey house ..our bedroom is on the top floor, and we both ended up sleeping in the lounge as it was cooler - we camped out though which was quite fun! x

Oh lamby i bet thats a lovely job in this heat getting sticky sweaty ladies in and out of those big dresses!! lol.
Wow id never thought of putting your bed sheets in the freezer, it might be worth a try though!
Babydancer i know what you mean about bd, i just cant in the heat! When my hubby came to bed last night he went to put his arm around me and i just shouted Noooo dont cuddle me its toooo hot!!! Poor thing!!
I have deffinately thought about going out in the garden and sleeping on one of the sun loungers!!
I might try the front room 1st though! lol. xxxx

I love the sun, don't want it to go!

But thirty sweaty children in the classroom is quite a challenge! Especially in the afternoon.
