it's getting hot up here...

So, what would you do to fight off the heat?
I work smack bang in the middle of the desert, and today, according to the official Geo's office thermometer, we reached a respectable 51.6 degrees celcius. (125 fahrenheit)
Apart from a camelpack filled with ice on my back, and an endless supply of icy poles I'm running out of ideas.....

Easy. Just get your citizenship then you won't be soft as butter

If it's cold, set your dive comp and house themometers to farenheit, it looks warmer then.

We had snow here last night

But it was all gone by this morning

Well you weren't looking hard enough or you get up an awful lot later than me

as I still saw plenty of snow on the way south down the A34 to Oxford/Newbury/Southampton.

It was then pissing with rain in Southampton

followed by a nice bit of sunshine and clear blue sky.... for a while anyway!

Denzel,

Bury yourself during the day and breathe through a small pipe.

At night move quickly wearing light clothes and cover up when you rest.

Steer away from small communities the dogs WILL give you away!

Head for Kuwait, rather than Syria, it's a lot less of a walk...............

Cheers,

Dave.

Dave you left that life behind a number of years ago.......

Plus I'm not sure that's the sort of work Denzel is up to in the middle of the desert?

But I'll bear it in mind should I find myself in such a situation
