Was very warm here, so I did some gardening and varnished the swing seat And tommorow Im gonna go buy some palms That's right, Palm trees can actually grow in the UK
Ours nearly died but my mum and I sanded it and varnished it today /cool . We also bought a cheapish bench (althought it's not bad quality ) from Homebase, and placed that on a concrete platform with flowers all around.
Slink: it's my eden getaway ;_; lol although what you find impressive about a cheap bench on a concrete platform, I dont know . My mum just ordered air conditioning units . Fans just spread the warm air around
In Malaysia (at least around KL), it's often close to 92 degrees F (that's around 33 C right?). I actually keep cool by wearing a sweater when I go outside.. outside temperature is higher than my body heat.
But man, we can really feel the climate change. It used to hover around 31-32, seems to have gone up about 2 degrees Celsius this year alone. And after an ultra-hot day, it doesn't just rain. It POURS! Waterfall-like. It's rare to see the average Malaysian give a damn about the environment but seeing all the sudden flash floods and first recorded tsunami, earthquake, and tornado in centuries, people are actually bothering to care a little.

Yes, I think we're seeing climate change in the UK too, in the summer the weather seems a lot more unpredictable nowadays. In 2006 the summer was really hot for the UK, then last year it rained for most of the summer, bad floods and high winds. This year has been slightly better so far some rain, but also just as many warm days for me.
