How to Survive the Heat Wave (2)

On the back of my previous blog on coping with the heat wave, a good friend of mine has made some excellent suggestions.
1) Take (additional) cold shower(s) if needed to cool down. If personal hygiene allows, use minimum/no soap to save water.
2) Put a small wet towel around your neck if social etiquette allows (probably at one’s own home)
3) To reduce the temperature of your flat/house, block as much light as possible entering it during the day and let in as much cooler air at night.
