Surely everyone's a "heat hater" to some extent? If it was 30'c in your house in winter, you'd turn the heating down, right? And no-one can enjoy stifling evenings where you get less sleep due to the heat? And if you're outside in 30'c, you'd typically be in the shade for large parts of it, right? 22-23'c and sunny is perfect, to say so doesn't make someone a grouchy hermit who draws the curtains during the summer. It's just common sense Even if that does't make for many "cor what a scorcher!" headlines in the Express, and scenes of beaches where you can't see the sand for pasty, pink, flabby Brits behaving like lemmings

People with kids innit, everyone's off for the summer hols! except the rest of us benefitting from quiet offices and blissfully empty roads during the commute my favourite past time is an outdoors pursuit, and it's a fricking nightmare in anything above 22'c there is nothing good about 30'c, but if you don't embrace it you're probably a reclusive weirdo who may do a murder one day

I've always been mystified by people saying nice weather has some kind of feel good factor attached. Very tabloidy, herd-like behaviour Can't say the prospect of 30 degrees at work and 21 at night makes me feel particularly upbeat at all, but then cool and showery doesn't have the associated depressing effect either Certainly nice to see the sun out and makes planning things easier, but the great british public tend to think that means they need to go out right away and sit in car park queues at garden centres I guess it comes with having a predominantly showery and cool climate, we're like sun "noobs"

Oh yes it is !

Please don't use up all the exclamation marks, there's only so many to go around
