I think the hot weather is fab for business.

The hotter it gets, the less people want to walk or wait for a bus full of smelly buggers.

always has been like that but there is a critical temperature if temps are less than 23 C it is BAD for business 23 to 25 C good above 25 C it is too hot for people to walk

Maybe we should have that on the tariff card.

The hotter it gets, the more it costs. 8-[

They're all down Skippy's way, playing with his electric windows and annoying the hell out of him :badgrin:

Just wondering though, if when tested your vehicle must have working windows, if you disable them to stop numpties fiddling with them then you're really not allowed to?

the longer this weather continues the quieter it is getting as people are not going into town or going out for meals etc. other than about once a week shopping trip it seems
