Apart from the obvious things like pools and air conditioning, have you got a little trick you like to help keep cool ?
Here's what we do in Casa De La CeeKay when we cant go to beaches, shops, etc ...
- Windows open overnight (Doors open optional) : Lets the trapped heat escape.
- Close North and West facing windows at sunrise including blinds : Prevents heat from entering.
- Cold morning shower.
- Remaining windows closed when aircon goes on.
- Zooper Doopers all day.
- Cold cloth cooling = Take a face washer. Apply cold water. Wring out excess water. Wipe the tops of your bare feet and the back of your neck ... VIOLA ... instant coolness.
- Beers after the peak heat of the day (4-6pm onwards)
FYI : Forecasts for Wednesday - Saturday (16/1 - 19/1)
Penrith : 41 - 42 - 45 - 35
Campbelltown : 38 - 39 - 42- 32
Bankstown : 34 - 37 - 38 - 30
Sydney CBD : 31 - 32 - 34 - 29
