London Wanderer Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Currently in Italy.. got three trains here from Edinburgh a week ago. Trains are ace here & half the price of ours. Been great so far. Today has been too hot though. 38 degrees in Lucca tomorrow so only getting worse. Off to Bologna which is looking cooler.

I’d never heard of it until earlier this week seeing a lad I’d know had somehow ended up there for work. Looks incredible. 24 degrees today has been spot on for an hour or so at the cricket and then watching Leigh Miners (3 quid a round cheaper than cricket club…) Lovely little breeze and job’s a good un. I’m going to die tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Lucca I remember going in this tiny trattoria just inside the city walls and eating some pasta dish with rabbit, best thing I’ve ever eaten in my life, not a clue what is was called and probably isn’t there any more. You’re welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boogs Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 It dangerous as fuck this weather, be warned. Went to the care home of the Mrs grandma this afternoon for her 96th birthday. All the family in the garden, was lovely but now back home and she's talking bollocks at me wobbling round the kitchen pissed. Prosecco, this weather and women do not mix well 🙄 I repeat, at a 96th birthday do, for fuck sake!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevieb Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Bring on global warming. Got a ginger Mrs... She's spent all day inside tidying the house hiding from the impending hottest day since July 2019 whilst I've been outside tanning and getting a BBQ on.

Traf Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Oh, for 2/3 days it's going to be as hot here as the places we all fuck off to for a fortnight every year. Get on with it, soft fuckers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The heat wave in 76 lasted between late June into August. It actually snowed in June of that year. Coloured pictures don’t prove anything.

Whatever the weather, it'll never do you any good that malarkey. Only two occasions you should be running, if your being chased or if your gonna miss last orders.

Caught covid in hospital Mate of mine mine was quoted 8 hours yesterday for an ambulance. ”is the patient breathing?” ”yes, but his leg is sideways and the bone is poking through the skin” ”is the patient breathing though?” ”yes but his leg looks like a French trimmed rib” ”best get a taxi or a lift, and the queue at A&E is 6 hours” My advice is not to get Poorly or have an accident right now.
