It Appears,

that the heat wave will be with us for some time,

 making sleeping a bit of a trial, well if like us you do not have air conditioning, so it was with interest that I read this articular in inews, image via wikimedia commons, just a few details from the article,

'Firstly, keep your curtains or blinds drawn during the day to block out the heat. Open windows and doors throughout your home to get a through-draft.

Making sure you are hydrated throughout the day is also very important and keeping a glass of water by your bed is advised. Also, avoid spicy foods and eating too late at night as this can raise your body temperature.

Keeping your extremities, such as your head and feet, cool can also lead to a more restful night.'
