Well family over there have told me that the British are going through a nasty heatwave, oldies suffer in extreme temperatures could finish him off even if the palace/hospital is air-conditioned. how is it over there?

Even in Scotland it's boiling. Heading for highest June temperatures since 1976. I remember that summer well, it was horrid, followed by one of the nastiest winters. Time for Mother Nature to take over reaping duties for the rest of the year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Mad Hatter 1,092 Posted June 21, 2017 We should stop being so negative and enjoy this beautiful weather. Young wily you should enjoy summer by stopping by a farm and watching hot 20 something's work up a sweat. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And in Scotland that's up to about 24 degrees. All a throwback to when I had meningitis as a kid. Summer is and shall always be horrid. 'Mon the autumn!

RadGuy 1,614 Posted June 21, 2017 Yeah, I seen y'all Brits complaining about the "heat wave" with temps at 30°C. We call that "summer" here in America. Cultural differences, man. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Certainly interesting to live in a climate where anywhere from -30C to 40C is considered the norm. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good point, I'd say he's thinking about his dad, maybe he knows something we don't? That being said, I do feel he's aged rather poorly despite Phillip's condition. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
