Temperature in an Office

    I once worked in an office built inside a wrinkly tin warehouse and in the hot summer of 2003 it was extraordinarily hot in there - mid thirties daily. There were only very tiny windows and it was impossible to get an air flow in there. I used to freeze two litre bottles of water overnight and then stand them in front of electric fans to move some cooler air around. It worked quite well until the afternoon when the ice melted! :rotfl:

    One particular hot day I was seriously considering stripping down to my bra and knickers it was so hot. Just sitting at my desk I was still covered in sweat (attractive huh?). But it would have been just my luck that an unexpected visitor would wander in and find me in my undercrackers!

    I was quite relived when the thermometer reached 37 because it meant the server needed to be shut down before it overheated and I could go home! :D
    You had me at your proper use of "you're".
