It is so bloody lovely out there.

The suns ok until it gets too hot for me.
How do the Aussie Gold Hunters put up with 40 degree and more temperatures?

Where there is (lots of) money to be made, some people will make sacrifices.

Two axioms for the majority of humans are greed and selfishness.

That's a rough house you run.
No wonder you sit up on guard duty every night.

I recall how hot it gets in London - people would just stop and sit down in the street it became so overwhelming at times.

You'd think it was cool here - but for those of us who've acclimatized to colder climes it's bloody awful.

Live firing attacks, with 81mm mortars, 50 Cals and SF overhead supporting fire, whilst skirmishing 300 metres toward and up a kopje with a severe case of dysentry when dressed in full combat gear quite near the equator was far more oppressive.
We must have been fucking mad.

Part of the job description, plus having a tapeworm inside and a few leeches stuck to you.

There is me struggling along in spider mode on Crib Goch with a light backpack and then come along 3 or 4 soldiers with heavy rucksacks walking and balancing themselves on the top of this ridge (about a foot wide at most) with their hands on the top of their heads like they were taking a stroll along the local road. Amazing doesn't cover it. That takes some fucking balls. Being in the military is OK I guess if you're based at barracks, not so good when people are trying to kill you.

Bunch of pansies, try having a heavy period in the sweltering heat.
