Does the UK know that season?

Just joking. I guess so, sure feels like summer. Apparently it is getting even warmer this weekend. They’re predicting around 33 degrees C for Saturday here in the south-east of the Netherlands.

No. In precisely 13.378945 hours you will recieve a blizzard.

There are only a few days a year I wish I had AC. Today is one of those days.

Yes, yes it does.

It’s payday tomorrow, and my weekend off so I’m getting a metric shit ton of Corona and limes and chilling (after I’ve finished cleaning a Defender).

29 deg is unnatural and to be avoided.

Me, I find that anything much above 20 is too much.

Get yourself to Veghel and have a half-litre of beer (not Grolsch or Heineken) for me in any of the bars in the Centrum.

I’ll Paypal you the money on request. Lol.

Then don’t live in the southern US. Average temp here during the summer is, calculated in C for you, around 37/38 degrees. We don’t get down to 20 degrees C until the end of fall / beginning of “winter”...

I might do that on Saturday, as I need to be there anyway.

No need to pay me for having a beer, I enjoy beer so much I don’t mind paying for it, haha.

29c is pleasant enough, it’s when it doesn’t cool down at night that gets me.

I drove home with my windows down and the AC on full blowing on my feet! AC is a must whenever it gets above 24c’ish and you have to go on a motorway.

I’m too, will be too warm for car cleaning for me, both cars are filthy though so the hand car wash for them it is!!

I don’t want to live somewhere that 29c is winter, seriously I love it being warm\hot but not in winter!!

We usually hit 38C by the first week of May. We will see how hot it gets this year. We were touching 49C a few days last year.

I remember having to do that, I’ve not had a car without AC since the late 90's, I couldn’t deal with not having it now!

You get used to the heat, but not the scenery.

The only car I ever had with AC was also the one I got rid of the quickest. I’m not a smart man.

Bloody marvelous. Just as a mate is coming up from Leyland for lunch (usually turns into an impromptu piss up) at 1pm.

That is a glorious view it has to be said but I do tend to prefer my lush green landscapes.

I used to have an Astra Sri that had an alloy shift knob (standard from the factory), freezing in winter, scalding hot in summer, such a poor design decision! My steering wheel was hot yesterday but luckily the Leon has a DSG box.
