This week I have been mostly...

...browsing BCF in just my pants.

It's just too hot. Has anyone bought an air conditioning unit - I'm thinking about the ones you see for about £100.

Do they work well enough to chill an average sized room?

I keep my office icy cold during the day then go to the gym where it's far too hot, then spend the rest of the evening too hot at home. I need office levels of heat at home.

I use this bad boy, its a honeywell fan.

No idea of model or owt like that, I'm not that sad

It's cool on setting 1, cold on setting 2 and fooking colder than the north pole on setting 3.

I'm sat in a Premier Travel Inn in Enfield that has an air con unit in my room. It's fucking noisy though

At work we use those ones that stand about three feet high, you put the pipe out the window, and keep the door to the room in question closed ... you can adjust the temperature, it has a thermostat of some sort that turns off when it gets to that temperature, and then back on again.

Sometimes they have little water tanks that you have to empty if its really humid, but often they have a little light on the panel to tell you it needs emptying.

I think they retail for about £70 in Woolworths in the summer time.

They work pretty well in the summer, considering how hot and sweaty it can be in this particular business, the girls in general are quite happy with them, and the customers often appreciate walking into a wonderfully chilled bedroom.

My room gets really hot in the summer. Those £100 jobs will do the job in a normal sized bedroom, but when the temp goes up to 30+ they really struggle. It was never 'cold' in my room like proper air con, just 'not as hot'.

I was walking around my flat stark bollock naked last night (it was still hot even though it's been pissing down), when a female friend of mine decided to come round for a coffee.

Most embarrasing moment ever.

Bit colder now. Cloud cover is pretty much full and its a bit windy.
Still sat in my boxers though, but maybe thats because I'm a lazy tosser?
