    It’s been rather hot and I needed to get some painting done. That was not ideal. Otherwise good.

    What about you?

      You’ve been painting in this weather? Are you OK? :D The paint was probably drying before it even went onto the walls!

      Yeah my week was fine ta, was just rather hot! I work from home and it was pretty unbearable on Friday. Seriously starting to think about investing in solar & A/C given that the summers are going to continue like this!

        +1 on the solar panel and a/c suggestion.

        If you can’t afford to install central a/c. A portable unit will set you back £300 odd at Argos, and easily cool a room down (like an art studio, for example). just make sure it has a compressor or lists BTU measurements… otherwise it’s probably a water cooler in a trench coat, rather than true Aircon, and the British climate doesnt allow water coolers to work all that effectively.

        I recommend them to lots of people who rent or can’t afford the renovation costs associated with A/C etc, and most are more than happy with results
