Many years a go while a student I worked as a motocycle courier in London. On hot summer days riding into the city in the early morning you could see a yellowish gray haze hanging over it. I used to wear a decorators dust mask while on the bike and by the end of the day it would be black all the way through.Originally posted by BrilloPad View PostA tad hazy in the smoke - though mostly sunny."Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife.Comment

I tried one of those. It made my glasses steam up.Originally posted by DaveB View PostMany years a go while a student I worked as a motocycle courier in London.

Personally I would like to see the congestion zone available only for buses/cycles 7am-7pm. Or better still the inner London ring road. Like at bank junction. There is plenty of public transport.
Congestion zone prices to apply 7pm-7am. Residents discount changed from 90% to -900%.Comment

Overcast out there
There's a very slight cool (18°C) breeze occasionally through the kitchen window, but it's too feeble to get as far as the other side of the room, never mind the rest of the flat. The living room remains at a bracing 29°C
And I had a rubbish night's sleep because of the heat, so this caused me to struggle to get started, so now I'm running late. Bring back the continuous light drizzle, I say
It's currently 28.4 deg C in my office.
Dunno what it is in the lab coz I refuse to go in there.
It's too goddamn hot!
Train was like an oven this morning, so I'm half cooked already.
And I've made my daily venture Specifically into General to find nothing of interest whatsoever.Comment

Hot in Manchester - but mustn't grumble.
Hopefully will get away about 3.30-4 and be in the local by 4.30-5
fingers crossed.Comment

Fecking motorbikes.
Having a nice sleep then a motorbike engine woke me up because the fecker decided to stop and keep his bike running."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment
