Hi, I was just wondering how everyone is coping with the heat this summer?
I'm not doing too well and was hoping for some tips!
I've pretty much had heat exhaustion everyday this week while at work (I'm a gardener)
And I don't know what to do? I'm drinking a load of water and trying to keep as cool as possible, which is fairly difficult in my job!
Is there anything else I can do?
I literally have to stop every half an hour to sit down because it feels like I'm going to pass out or throw up! (Not nice!)
It's difficult because I can't not work, it's the busiest time of the year and I have a ton of jobs to do!
HELP!!!!
Many thanks!
