Peoples,
I was born in the Caribbean. BORN THERE, I say. And have the melanin to prove it. And yet, I sit here gasping :( 90 and 100 degrees Fahrenheit. (I'm old, so I'm still thinking in imperial and pre 1980 units!)
I came here when I was 3 years old, and dont like the cold. But...
I used to get heatstroke in Britain in the summer when it got too hot. And a friend of mine, same heritage, used to get sunburn! Yes! How is that even possible?

And why is it hotter here than the Mediterranean? Than the Caribbean? Without the scenery to go with it???

My poor son is suffering. He actually LIKES the cold. His ideal holiday is a skiing holiday. (I hate snow). So he is gasping, and miserable.

Oh well.
Time to put on some SOCA!Dollar Whine. Sugar Bum Bum (for all us generously sized ladies out there. As the immortal Lord Kitchener sang, 'Give me the bum bum, Audrey..') and of course, the most obvious one, by Arrow
