Three frozen bottles in front of our fan. It’s not air conditioning, but it’s creating a cooling breeze. It got up to 27°C today so far in our living room. Last night it was 24.7°C. I got up at 5am to open up a indow and the back door to achieve that it had been a degree higher. We have the windows shut and the curtains closed. I know this temperature is nothing compared with other places, but I don’t travel to hot places so it’s a bit of a shock to my system.
In other news it is the hottest day in UK history. It is at 40°C at Heathrow Airport.
We are complaining, but wild fires are burning in France, Spain, Portugal and Greece. If you don’t believe in Global Warming think again.
There’s an old song ‘mad dogs and English men go out in the midday sun’. It’s due to cool down tomorrow.

Loved the idea with the frozen water bottles. Very innovative😊

I’ve seen other people do it. Don’t over fill the bottles and push some of the air out so as the ice expands it does not split the bottle.

My solution to this heat is to put fans in the windows, pointed out to pull the hot air out of the house and bring the cool air in at night. I’ve done that everywhere I’ve lived and it works. At the moment I have two — one in each bedroom. Here’s a discussion of how: https://www.bobvila.com/articles/how-to-use-a-window-fan/

Only if the heat keeps up. I keep hoping for fall but it’s a ways off…
