July testers - Over 35

They're not sunbathing, per se. They are all getting burned, lol. Just wait, there will be a bunch of UK men with horrible burn lines between their black socks and brand new white Nikes, lol.

Ladies with air con I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO jealous! I know in the UK we don't hit the temps you can in Canada and the US but I start to struggle once the heat goes over about 18C mainly as the UK gets hot and humid and it triggers my migraines But 2 years ago DH fitted a portable air con unit in our front room and we're considering one for the bedroom

Dmom I so wish you either get your BFP tomorrow or AF turns up for a visit Ideally your BFP I remember my long cycle and the limbo drove me nuts so lots of

OMG Wooly....18C is 64F.......That's cold!!!
We keep our thermostat on 78F/25C in the summer and 68F/20C in the winter...

Wow, I can't bear 78 here in south Florida! I keep my ac on 73-75, too hot for me otherwise.

 

[Indigo77]

I lived in AZ for 8 years....maybe that's why i am always cold....i would prefer to keep in at 80....i freeze my ass off in the winter when it is set to 68....

Is everybody out trying to get a tan?

Totally I was out for an hour at lunchtime sunbathing, I can't do it in proper hot weather as I just FRY but in 22C it's perfect, I'm all flushed and freckly!

71F and you're sunbathing? I would be way too cold....

22C feels warmer here than in a drier climate, as we have a high level of humidity in the air at all times. Anyway back to 17C and raining tomorrow so had to make the most of it!

No it's not it's lovely At a push we let it get to 20C but never higher

There is such a benefit having fans on and keeping the house cold - none of the female in laws visit who irritate me as they hate anything below 23C

All the dogs like it cooler except Teddy but bless him he has the thinnest coat and no body fat so we keep him covered with a blanket although he is toughening up slowly

You are just like me! My favorite season is fall hands down. Not that we have seasons in Florida but I enjoy traveling to other places especially during fall so that I can enjoy the crisp air and autumn leaves.

Me too I love feeling the leaves crunching under my feet ,

Quicky question ladies, when exactly do you consider an OPK to be +? I'm using CBFM in the morning but IC the rest of the day and today I finally got one where the line looks to be almost as dark as the control line. Not sure if it's positive though. Should it be just as dark as the control line or darker???

Just as dark or darker...you have an almost positive. Probably tomorrow.

Funny you should say that, I got this today, wondering if I can squeak in a +ve?! Nearly? Would value an expert opinion!

I'm hoping by mid afternoon it will be clearer anyway...

 

[dachsundmom]

You have an almost too, lol. But both of you need to go have sex, lol

 

[Mon_n_john]

LOL, sounds good to me Dmom, I'll go tell DH you told us to go have sex! HAHAHA!

 

[googly]

Woh, sorry, I totally posted that in the wrong thread, intended it for the POAS thread... but thanks DMom, will do!

(well maybe when I/we get home from work anyway... )

 

[Conina]

Ok we've finally been told that we're definitely completing on the house tomorrow So I may be MIA for a few days between moving, painting, and the fact that the broadband won't be up and running immediately. I have to make it into work to get on to BnB!!

About the men walking round half-naked in 20C heat - they're not getting a tan, as they're irish, they're freckling or burning (or both). There'll be a lot of lobsters walking round Belfast over the next few days.

Snigger - Scottish men are the same gene pool, the shirts should stay on for sure.

 

[Conina]

We girls have learnt that white and pasty isn't a good look, I don't know why the blokes haven't realised it yet...

 

[NorthStar]

I totally accept my white pastiness, I was born this way and it would be a cold day in hell that I would submit to a spray tan, see so many women here that look like they've been "Tangoed".

But then I'm not going to walk about with no shirt on either

 

[Macwooly]

Well I'm part Scottish and part Irish and learnt at a very young age that sunbathing turns me into a lobsters so I am pale and interesting all year long

I can just about cope with seeing pasty white men with shirts off but the men with hairy backs that take their shirts off One of DH's friends removes his shirt in the summer and he has that much body hair it looks like he has a hair shirt still on
