Take a clue from the people who live in the hottest rejoins of the world. Wear loose, baggy, flowy clothes, use lots of anti-persprent, carry around the A/C, and drink lots of water! Enphisis on water, alcohol, though a fluid, dehydrates you

just followed him, right on schedule, picked up a couple of pints after he drives out of the street, jump into a couple of allys, and catch him on the next one.

yay!
we can have a gut competition!!! would love to catch up for a spin. although youd better be careful how you say 'cumming to auz' as some ppl may get the wrong idea.... or the right idea depending upon your target audience.
drop us a PM when you know your schedule is. i spin with the glebe crew on thurday, and whenever else i generally feel like it.
funky, im confused are you saying you keep cool by creeping out in the early hours of the morning and stealing the neighbours' milk?

at the hottest part of the day, find a pool, get in it and refuse to come out until it starts to cool down again. Remember to use sunblock, and be prepared to deal with confused/angry pool owners.

The optimist claims that we are living in the best of all possible worlds.
The pessimist fears this is true.
Always make time to play in the snow.

enjoy it!
heat is wonderful and a clear blue sky is the nearest thing to heaven.
but if it does get too hot, swims or showers, liquids (not too cold and with lots of salts in them) and the brilliant too-hot-to-move "siesta" when the sun is at its peak.
oh and lots and lots of ice-cream

In my hands I hold your smile and in my heart it runs so wild You are the one you are unique I'm so in love you make me weak And the reason that I feel is like a shadow from a light so if you have the chance to be with me be my shadow in the night

If you're not confused, you're not thinking about things hard enough.

I'm going to have to agree with that one Ow. Dipping my toe in the Pacific cooled me down quite adequately.
Perfect temperature here but I'm presuming you're also on your way to the Nevada desert? It's going to be pretty hot there I reckon. Can't wait!

When it gets cold, you can always put more layers on.
When it's hot, there's a limit to what you can take off...
