With temperatures set to soar to 30c over the coming days, are these conditions to hot to work outside.

I'm asking as today reached 28 and 2moro I'll be back to work am dreading the heat and possibility of heat stroke.

Very important to drink plenty of water during the day and sunscreeen. I'd also recommend a change of clothes during the day if possible, I find it had a nice physiological impact when I did it.

I work outside and AFAIK there is no law stating a max or min temperature one can work in.. Its up to your own discretion.. I'll be plastered in factor 50.. Might even bring an umbrella with me if sun is that bad tomorrow..

In this weather everything is worth trying.

It's just fab at the moment. Cup of tea, then a cycle, shower, bit of work indoors over the hottest hours (f**g vat return doesn't care about the nice weather) a swim and then outdoors again when it slighly cools down. Finishing up with a spritzer or a cool beer.

Wear a hat and keep it wetted; as it dries out it draws heat away from you head; very effective personal cooling mechanism

Hydrolites in your water and plenty of it, about 4 litres over your 8 hr day,not much danger of heatstroke until it hits 35.

Put a pinch of good salt, hymalayan or celtic sea salt into your water to stop you feeling jaded. You sweat out salts so need to replace them. You can get electrolytes to add to your water which would be more balanced but the salt will do the trick too, happy sunning..

Missus an I both work outside and for us it's amazing as we are both sun worshippers. Only problem is it's a builders tan we get so end up going to sunbeds to even it out lol

Well it's certainly hot so far. I've been walking around with a leaf blower on my back and it delightfully has a small fan cooling my back as well so I think I'll leave it on all day.

I intentionally came into work for the opposite reason today. Its impossible to keep the house at a comfortable temperature, so delighted to sit in an air conditioned office.

I set it up for a while father along the hedge blowing back at me but the neighbour complained about stuff blowing in on her side.

She then bizarrely asked me if I would stop making noise as she was trying to listen to Joe Duffy in her garden.

I told her I'd save her the bother and said "it's a terrible situation and someone needs to be held accountable". She asked me was I listening to it as well!

I was about to say is that you next door driving me nuts with that hedge trimmer? I was close to complaining too, but the effort to put some less skimpy clothes on was holding me back.
