I mean seriously… this kind of heat isn’t normal… global warming for the win

Apparently this the hottest summer for a long time, yesterday rocking up to 40 degrees!

It’s so hot that:

- My laundry is dry within 20 minutes of being hung outside
- I’m seriously contemplating not leaving my flat and the god sent air conditioning for the next 8 days of my holiday
- I don’t open the curtains during the anymore - darkness!
- I sleep hugging the air con remote control
- I was sweating and panting at 11.45pm last night whilst cycling back wearing sandals, shorts and a basketball top - I mean seriously come on
- I actually enjoy taking freezing cold showers

The world is truly messed up…
