How to Survive this English Heatwave

Tuesday, 19 July 2016




(a short guide)

So the current temperature, according to the weather app on my Mac, is 32 degrees. A humungous leap from the dreary weather we’ve been experiencing the past couple of months. It was raining less than a week ago when I went out for lunch in Oxford, so this change is more than welcomed. It is England however and having constant hot weather is something we are not renowned for. Here are some tips on how to survive the next 3 (approximate) day heatwave:

1. Wear something loose. I don't know why but wearing clothes at all in this weather is so hard. 
2. The temperature outside is the same as it is indoors - so I would probably recommend staying indoors, in bed, with the covers off and a cold towel on your forehead. And the curtains drawn. 
3. Avoid having a black car - if you have a black car like me, park it in the shade and leave it there till  it rains again. It’s so hot everywhere and it’s only necessary to leave the house for essentials, like ice cream.
4. Still go to the gym, don't miss out on those gains, but be prepared to sweat just that much more so take a towel.
5. Suncream (if you do go anywhere)
6. Maybe even use fake tan. I’ve tried this so many times and it always goes wrong; but I am so pale that I don't realise I am as pale as I actually am (if that makes sense)

Enjoy it while it lasts people!
