a hot week in progress
Aug. 5th, 2003 11:37 amA heatwave has descended upon London. We are not prepared for this.
Tube trains have been ordered to move slowly, in fear some of the trains might derail; workers overdress and sweat like pigs marching to the slaughter house (note to the British people: there is a product out there called Antiperspirant Deodorant which prevents your 5-days-without-a-shower-smell disgusting other people); buses turn into playgrounds for angry passengers and frustrated drivers to vent; air conditioning breaks down; water coolers don't cool water anymore; noses go runny; flies land on your neck and won't take off; the Thames loses its charm.
I want to be by the sea; I want to be in Brazil.
