Nanny's Heatwave Curfew

A couple of days of warmish weather and Nanny, as per usual, has gone into hyperventilation mode and issued a series of heatwave alerts and curfews.

We are instructed, if we live in the South East, East and Midlands, to keep out of the sun between 11am and 3pm.

We are also advised to turn off non-essential lights and electrical equipment, to avoid generating excess heat, and wear a hat or light scarf if venturing outdoors.

Public Health England said people should keep curtains closed, move to a cooler room to sleep, and should eat salad, drink plenty of water and avoid extreme physical exertion.

Schools have been advised to monitor overweight children and encourage youngsters to play in the shade. They have also been asked to avoid leaving computers and printers on standby mode.

Oh and if your Muslim and fasting during Ramadan, Nanny is fearful that you have no idea how to cope with heat.

Dr Paul Cosford, of Public Health England, is quoted in the Telegraph:

“While many people enjoy hot weather, high temperatures can be dangerous, especially for people who may be particularly vulnerable, such as older people, young children and those with serious illnesses. 

Many members of the Muslim community may be fasting during the current period of Ramadan. During hot weather it’s important to balance food and fluid intake between fasts and especially to drink enough water.” 

I am old enough to remember the drought and heatwave of 1976, we didn't have any of this bollocks then and managed to live through it!
