Heat exhaustion

· 424 words · 2 minute read

I love living in a hot country. I like waking up to sunshine almost every day. I like the warmth, don’t mind a bit of sweat; and could never, ever, live in the UK again. But this is a bit much.

The last week it has just been getting hotter by the day, and now we are experiencing something in the region of forty degrees of Mr. Celsius.

No, I don’t want to go out and take photos. I don’t want to sit and type on a computer. I just want a small air-conned room and a bed to doze on until the rains come and temperatures decline.

Which means you are not going to see many updates until normal service is resumed.

Now, if you excuse me, I’m going for a little lie down.

Can you take a photo of the ceiling please? Extra marks for a gecko in sharp focus…

It gets up to 50 of the Mr. Celcius where I’m working here in the Arabian Peninsula. Give me hot and dry any day over the cold and wet of that country we came from.

I’ve been monitoring the temperature and humidity in Bangkok and it has been consistently around 40 degrees and 40 percent for at least a week, maybe more. And as long as the humidity keeps well below its usual 70-80 percent that is fine by me. Nice dry heat, like in our ‘winter’ but hotter. Humidity shoots up to 80 at night though, but it always does.

This is turning out to be a very long “little” lie down!

As long as it’s not the ’long’ lie down…

Wake up …. this has taken too long! It was a lovely cool morning today at 6 and even at 8:50 the temp did not hit the 30 yet.

At this rate Rip Van Winkel will be getting a run for his money.

Hope you are well Spike !

C’mon Spike. It’s well past three days and long overdue for you to rise again. Even as a not so sure non-believer!

This has taken toooo long …. I will head 567km south to check-out what happened that family beach resort along the Eastern Seaboard!
