42 is bad for the UK, I am inside and I don't have AC
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming “Wow! What a Ride!" - Hunter S Thompson - RIP

I was raised further east in Flintshire. I do remember really cold winters, but also sea swimming even in October.

- Drink a lot, preferably stuff with electrolytes (sports drinks and such)
- Stay out of the sun as much as possible
- Avoid physical exercise in the heat
- Pour (cool) water over your head to cool it
- If your garden needs watering, do so at night; don't waste the water by evaporation

Durn, that's like Phoenix, Arizona hot.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

But then, 2 falls ago I put in a swimming pool in my back yard. Last summer was the coolest summer we'd had in Atlanta, Georgia in 30+ years. We normally get well over 30 days in the 90s (fahrenheit), last summer we had 4. I put in a pool heater this spring and we are back to our normal number of very hot days.

So the crazy weather is all your fault!

I am wishing a return to normal weather for you very soon. The heat is really nasty and dangerous for some people and critters.

Nice Spring weather! It's been around 48° C here for a few weeks. Everything I've planted since March is already dead, since we've had no measurable rain this year.

A cold shower/soak does wonders. Saves on AC also.

Once I'd posted the "dunno what PE is" bit, I realized what it was ...

I have no idea how you could come up with that without realizing what it was!

"Plain" gave me "Steppe" right away, and "Stage" is a "Step", so that confirmed it. But I couldn't get "So to speak" to give me "PE".
I blame dehydration ...

well I blame the dehydration too, but in my case the "PE" still hasn't dawned on me... come on, do tell!

"Steppe" sounds like "step" - so no "PE" clue part needed.

Runway
Runway (UK) = what aeroplanes take off from / land on. Plane is a homophone for plain (so to speak)
Runway (US) = cat walk (UK) - stage for fashion shows
