Alright refugees!

I reckon we need to have a threat to chat. About stuff. With reddit 'closing' for the next few days in some cases, and foreseeable in others, I felt like this thread was appropriate.

What are you all up to today? Anything interesting going on? I already know it's too hot.

Anyone else think it's too hot for tea? I really want a cuppa but in this heat it's just not the same.

Agree! I don't know how people do tea in this weather, and I love tea.

Smashing back the bottles of water like no tomorrow.

Just had a cuppa because it's what you do, but also I'm now full of hot sloshy regret. We can't win!

I just had a massive cup of tea and an even larger slice of cake. I regret nothing.

I'm in the US, pretty addicted to my cold plain black tea, make it myself, it goes EVERYWHERE with me!

at least you're hydrated!

You can make cold tea, like coldbrew coffee. just put the leaves in a container and soak overnight in the fridge. serve with ice, very refreshing. To make it easier you can put it in a cafetiere, and use the filter from that to pour it out. Also tea is still drunk plenty in countries with much higher average temperatures.

Struggling to come up with ideas for dinner. Looking like it's gonna be another chicken fucking salad. Can't bear to cook anything over the cooker. Might even just get sandwhich stuff which has the benefit of being able to tell the weans to make their fucking own dinner for once.

Pasta salad? Gazpacho soup?

Ended up going for BLTs!
