Over 50's Club Scotland

That breeze is making all the difference isn’t it … the MET office and the BBC weather seem to be disagreeing now over how long it will last.
According to the Beeb by Thursday it will be drizzly and overcast.

Good morning Folks,another sunny warm one here and will get warmer as the day goes on…Didn’t sleep well last night and woke up with a banging headache…took My BP and it’s quite high so just staying inside in the cool and taking it easy 'til it’s back to normal…I’m getting fed up with this hot weather,We here in the North just aren’t used to it :neutral_face:

Morning, May I’m sorry to hear the heat is taking it’s toll, I’m not feeling like my usual self either. So tired and headaches always lingering in the background. I didn’t want to go out for dinner on Saturday Evening just wanted to lie on the bed under the fan.----So I did.
We took The Clydes to the forest yesterday afternoon for a while it was nice and cool under the trees with no sun, better than the beach would have been.
Was at the pool first thing but was too wabbit to do all my lengths, only did about 25 then went to the cold jacuzzi and wallowed there. Will be a lazy-ish day for me. :sleeping:
Enjoy your day folks.:slightly_smiling_face:

Good morning a bit cooler here today. Did some food shopping yesterday then about four o clock got the lounger out and sat out for ten minutes, then I went and sat in the shade. Cant take the heat the way I used to. Meeting a friend for coffee later.

Morning lasses … it’d help to get a decent night’s sleep wouldn’t it.
I’ve gone right off food. Don’t know what to eat.

@May … hope your BP starts to drop. I haven’t read mine, wouldn’t dare but my ankles have come up a bit the last few days.

Good morning each,it was cool and overcast earlier but now the sun has arrived and the temp’ is climbing,to get even hotter as the week goes on.

Hi Morty,I took Your advice and kept My feet propped up while watching tv last night.so ankles are fine thanks…Took My BP this morn’ 130/80,so it’s come down a bit…According to NHS chart that’s normal for Someone My age,but it’s a bit higher than usual for Me…but…I’ll Live :laughing:

See Ye A’ later x

Good evening started off a bit cool here this morning. Had my hair done then went to Braehead and bought a few summer tops. Sat out side when I got home in the sun lounger then sat in the shade.

Morning, This weather is really starting to affect me now AND there’s no end in sight. It’s cool at the moment so I’m catching up with things around here and watering the tubs. Getting all this done before the sun and heat come back later today, and floors me again. :woozy_face:

Morning Rox! The weather here is actually much nicer here (South Yorkshire) at 19C at the moment.

Good morning cool here at the moment. Tidying up doing jobs I’ve neglected due to the cold I* had. Got a gift voucher for my birthday so my niece are going to use it for lunch. Then a few bits of shopping and home and sit outside for a little while in the shade.

It started cloudy here but it’s soon warmed up again.
D’you know I wouldn’t mind so much if I lost some weight but I’m not and I look godawful stripped off.

Given the weather I think 130/80 is dead good.
I have my own feet up, wrapped around my neck as we speak! :smile:

Morning All…gonna be another scorcher…woke around 5-30.had a glass of water, then watered all the plants…thought I would have become used to the heat by now :roll_eyes:

I’ve sussed the reason for the rise in My BP…SALT…which I’ve been adding to My meals most days because I always did when there was a heatwave,(mainly on holidays abroad)
so no more…back to normal.
Have a good day all.x

Morning All, Nice out this morning around 17deg and cloudy, but that won’t last it’s due to hot up later. Done most of the jobs in the house and the tub watering. Washings on and a big pot of Stovies to make.
Have a good day everyone. :slightly_smiling_face:

Good morning cooler here this morning as well. Bedding out on the line and now for a quick tidy up. Meeting a friend for lunch and a few glasses of wine, looking forward to having a good chinwag. May I don’t use a lot of salt usually on chips. Rox don’t have any pots or plants to water.

I’ve just munched through some toast … I’ve gone right off food this weather.
It’s cooler to find a shady spot and pop my feet up and read my kindle.

I don’t read books anymore I listen to Audio Books. My eyes got sore after a while so I switched. I find them better for me as I do my online jigsaws or my knitting while I listen. If I’m driving between Thurso and Perth on my own then I listen in the car.

I’ve never tried them but I can see the advantage and I guess the narrator’s voice can make all the difference. Certainly more relaxing.

Afternoon Each,haven’t done a thing so far except drink tea & juice…sat in the shade and read for a wee while,but soon came into the cool.

I know …you just don’t know what to do with yourself do you?
