Okay, assume you dont have air conditioning or access to a swimming pool...what is your top tips for keeping cool? London is hitting 95 tomorrow - again!

Get in the tub/shower and sit in front of a fan while wet. I had to do this with my dogs when our AC went out a few years ago. -
I have AC here in my house and I'm still hot. Been jumping in a cold shower every other hour or so.Comment

1) set up standing fan
2) stand in front of rotating fan
3) Spray water in a mist form from a spray bottle into fan
4) relax, repeat as neccessary

Water is the key. Drink juice too. Close your TV, Computer, etc if you don't use them... they generate heat.Last edited by boner 2.0; 07-13-2005, 11:24 AM.

Keep your shades closed, possibly widows too. Buy a GOOD fan, I bought a tower fan last year for $50 and it works great. Drink plenty of cold water, eat cold food, place cool objects on your forehead and back of the neck, wear light clothes and stand up often so your body isn't "closed" up all day, etc.
Lots of things you can do. Cold water is probably the best.Vacares - Web Hosting, Domains, O365, Security & More - Paxum and BTC Accepted

A friend of mine bought a floor fan that sprays mist - just plug into a hose. Great for a patio. Of course, not very suitable for indoor use ... unless you want to swim in your apartment too.

But you have AC. When there's no AC, it's not fun at 95 - or even 75, IMHO.Originally posted by p1mpdoggComment

I can't stand how hot it's been here lately. I suppose we're just not used to it.

there are 32 computers in my office, think how much heat that generatesOriginally posted by thinkx
i did learn a new trick though. My office is over my garage, the garage is not cooled. Since i also use the garage as a shop to work on my bikes, and I live in Las Vegas, it gets too damn hot in the garage to do anything. So I bought an evaporative cooler. its basicly just a large fan that pulls air thru some pads that have water streaming over them. As the water evaporates, its cool the air, just like if you put alcohol on your skin, it feels cold as its taking the heat away as it evaporates, so same principle for the fan. So anyway now my garage is 20 degrees cooler, my office is cooler because the garage below it is cooler, and it only cost me $400 for fan. The fan is cheap to run, i mean its just a fan with a water hose connected to it.Comment

it is suppose to be that hot there..it isn't here. Also, go ride the underground in London at this heat. There is no a/c down there either and is well above the 100 degree mark.Originally posted by p1mpdoggComment

The temps here have been hit the high 30'sC with the humidity.
I don't have an air conditioner, so yesterday when I was gettting over heated
I went and took everything out of my fridge, racks and all, then climbed in a with a good book and a fan blowing on me for 1/2 hour.
it cooled me off quite nicely.
I only stayed in 1/2 hr so my food stuff would not go bad.
today I tried it agian and again it worked. So that is my way of trying to beat the heatLast edited by cool1; 07-13-2005, 06:44 PM.
