    Got a mate comes to see me from Garston (where I'm from), arriving after Songkran, and he would swap Liverpool for Khon Kaen any day, if he had the money. Comparing the 2 cities, here wins hands

As I said, for the folks here that do not like heat, it must be utter hell. Its all manageable for me. I don't mind it and never have.

You sat on the pavement naked? Thats silly, I just put on three socks and do the tripod. Lot cooler. And the girls dont run. In fact, they sort of crowd around

Comparing the 2 cities, here wins hands down, and well worth putting up with some extreme heat for. 

 

Garston is a dismal, grey, characterless, nowhere-ville attached to North Watford.

 

A place of banishment and death, only notable and only visited for its crematorium (where several friends and family have gone up in smoke).

 

As a Hertfordshire native who knows the dump and has experienced the cities at both ends of the M62 (Liverpool and Hull) I would choose either of them over Garston without hesitation.

Garston is in South Liverpool, famous for certain footballers like John Aldridge and Jimmy Case.

I enjoyed my 45 years there, but was eventually glad to move here for the climate, for medical reasons.

I expect most of the posters on this thread are British,we always

complain about the weather,too hot ,too cold,too wet.too whatever.

I honestly dont feel its hot yet,I don't have A/c,as I don't like them.

sleep with the windows open,same downstairs windows open in

the day,have lots trees ,bushes and water around the house,which

keep it cool,you can feel the difference when you go outside.

 

When in the house I,just wear a sarong,and put on fan in afternoon,

if you are feeling the heat now,I can promise you ain't felt nothing yet.

I would rather be here feeling the heat,than freezing my arse off in UK.

Ellesmere port takes the crown for dull and getting duller, sat many hours in that bloody shopping mall selling my hand made artsy gear.

I used to clean the windows of Peter beardsley & Alan hanson on Rotten row Southport how aptly named, the tight <deleted> never ever tipped at crimbo.

It's been 104 <deleted>' degrees out since noon. No air conditioning. Am I supposed to be feeling guilty for feeling uncomfortable??? Like I'm less of a man for not reveling in this tropical heat wave? Jeez.

I'm a scouser and we are full of ideas, like robing banks ????

What do you robe them in?

Ay it’s been a bit cosy this week !!

Picked the wrong week to start tiling outside I suppose but needs to be done before the rains come !!
Luckily have a bit of a breeze and not too bad in the shade, but in direct sunshine.... no thanks, just don’t have the protection up top anymore !!

I had to put me big coat on earlier, didn't wanna get a chill in me kidneys :drunk:

Had a storm middle of last week for about an hour, I dashed around moving stuff under cover but needn’t have bothered the rain came literally sideways and the wind changed direction to make sure it soaked everything !!

 

On the other hand, 30 minutes after the storm it was like it never happened and and the car  was gleener !!

You are dude. Real men would be out digging a ditch with no shirt or running a marathon

A bit of a head scratcher that anyone would move to a hot tropical country and then whinge about the weather?

I know of people who've bought property close to airports and then complain about the aircraft noise. There's none so queer as folk

I always assumed that it was due to wearing women's clothing rather than the hard work though.

I don't think a sarong would go down well in Sunderland....

I was in Bangkok last weekend and with the haze was probably only about 30 degrees, so quite comfortable as not too humid.

In the house a fan is enough cooling by day and at night can have the air con at 26 degrees.

Only a few things cause me (occasionally) to visit "The Pool", marriages, deaths and a visit to Anfield to watch the Redmen. Same goes for the rest of the UK. I prefer my little place in Pattaya by the sea.

Id rather watch grass grow. Wannabes and Scousers. At least when they had Gerard and Crouchie you could enjoy watching them lose, now you cant even do that. Better off watching the pathetic MLS

 

Man U. You will never be it.
