They always say it different heat abroad and we have dry heat, but all the hot weather is a dry heat, I do prefer to experience the sun on holiday though.


You are completely right

I always sweat in the UK but have been in several deserts and you don't sweat at all

 

[DeletedUser100133]

That sound interesting, which deserts have you been in?

Most recently the Arabian desert, but have spent some time in a few around that area

Edit: I really hate camel spiders

Lol. Most people do. Only ones we like over here are the “Pets” - aka huntsman spider

Spiders I don't mind but I draw the line at something that eats your face off whilst you sleep

Aliens?

I have been to a few desserts but never for work and rather like them. That said I have gotten sweaty in the day.

Did you not get a gonker with the zip up net? We got given em when we went to Kenya a few years back. Lots of snakes and scorpions mentioned during the briefings. I was zipped up every night. Nice bit of kit. I can't remember where I put it but I am sure it will turn up a week or so after I eventually sigh off.

This is the wrong thread to read before heading off to sleep. I really really hate spiders and now I have visions of my face been eaten whilst sleeping. So..... moving on the fall event will be coming soon .

In Oman (back in 2001) we were literally sleeping out in the open. Used to catch the spiders and scorpions and get them to fight

If I see a spider in my house, it not long before the spider sees a heavy object hurdling towards it or sucked into a vacuum cleaner. lol

I tend to rescue them and put them outside

How is that better than spiders?

There's no creepy crawlies in it

Sure there is. I think I have what's called an event-phobia.

No that will be the Halloween event I do every event on Beta to make sure we are understanding the mechanics etc, but I don't do every event on live.

I honestly think there are way too many events. This is no way a complaint, I can easily just skip them. In my mind, though, they lose their value when we have more event-days than non-event-days.
