I'm in the UK and it's got so hot some years it's unfathomable. We got to 30 degrees a couple of years ago! We're not built for it and it's awful.

Not 30C, but 40! I was putting the washing out on the line and the first items were practically dry by the time I'd put the last things on.

My wife was also heavily pregnant at the time so It was definitely not fun for her!

You really have my sympathy

We reached 40 degrees two years ago for the first time ever in Hamburg. It was really uncomfortable.

God that's unbearable

That's a fun username if you're German 😂

And happy cake day 🍰

I hope Germany doesn't get too hot, I'm in Berlin in 9 days!

Thanks!

I like the name. It's hard to pronounce squirrel if you're german and it's hard to pronounce Eichhörnchen if you're a native english speaker :)

I have never seen that word before, never heard it spoken. Here's my attempt:

Very good. But, you pronounced the second "ch" as "sch". It's pronounced the same as the first "ch".
