It's hot so what? gawd there are counties in the world that are like this every day, they don't close schools and have national emergency. Same when it snows, why are we so carp at weather? I never had a day off school for weather, ever and I was at school in 1976.

It's all very boring, but I went fishing off the beach today and I had a jolly nice time.

Prudie, you are wasting your time on here, the doomsayers WILL have their say no matter what !! It's not allowed to have a different opinion to the majority doncha know - same with the tedious Parker Bowles thread lol.

Thank God all this madness will be over after tomorrow and the 'thousands will die' soothsayers can be put away for, hopefully, another year .....

arent all the non doom mongers also having their say then? isnt that what the threads topic is?

BTW, there are only 3 posters on this 8 page thread that refer to heatwaves increasing the death rate so i'm not quite sure why you are so aresey about it - many more people saying the conservatives are doing the wrong thing, and agreeing with you than disagreeing, so i dont get why you think that The doom mongers are insisting on their say. It's in reality the other way round

I think the Parker Bowles thread was fairly even on both sides.
