You don't need to be a doctor to know that is extremely ill-advised. And how long was he standing 40C heat? 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 30 minutes. 1 hour, 2, 3, 4, 5 hours? Was he in the sun all the time or in the shade? Was he far away from a cool room perhaps with a/c, was he far away from a cool drink? For periods exceeding 10 or 15 minutes at the very most, I totally agree with you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you saying he's ill now but wasn't before? Some clarity to help people understand would be good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm in fine fettle. For someone who's supposedly recovering from serious health issues it's insane. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For someone who's supposedly recovering from serious health issues it's insane. Thank you for your response. I spent about 20 minutes this evening unrolling and straightening out a 50 metre roll of hose pipe. Part of the time I was in my workshop with a commercial size fan running flat out just blowing warm air around. It was around 35C in the shade and I stopped a couple of times for a break. I am 79 and it buggered me. I came back inside and sat with2 fans blowing on me, and it was only 33C. I also drank about half a litre of coldish water before I really cooled down. If Thaksin was out in the sun, for 20 minutes (no hat that I could see) he must have been broiled. I know I couldn't do it now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
