What time do you prefer to get up in the morning?

Yes I dislike humidity - makes movement more laboured.

I have only recently become more heat savvy, e.g. to draw the curtains when it is hot outside - keeps the room cool but I daresay you would dislike this tip being into light in a big way! :okay: A wet (wrung out) towel, pegged onto a clothes hanger and placed in an opened window also cools.

I have several ways of keeping cool when out and about, e.g. asking for a glass of water in a pub (they always oblige) and ask if I want ice! After the drink I keep an icecube to rub on my wrists (I don't care about looking odd!) I always keep a small spray bottle filled with water (something I started when I went through the menopause. I keep it in the fridge prior to going out). It's such a boon to be able to spray it on my face and hair, to cool down, e.g. on a hot bus! When buying an ice lolly, I have been known to place my hands on the ice within the freezer! Ha - what a joy it is to be a carefree eccentric!

I have recently bought a small spray bottle so I can put some perfume into it from a big bottle to take on holiday, your usage of cold water is a great idea, I may need that instead of perfume.

I also adopted that method during the menopause. Its very handy...
 
I have problems sleeping so I get up when I wake up and go to bed when I feel tired. My body clock seems to work on a 20 hour day basis, of which 4 hours is sleep. At the weekends I can go all weekend without sleep if there's motor racing on :D

P.S. When it's hot, I drink lots of hot tea.
 
When it gets hot here after midday I drink a cold beer. If that doesn't work, I drink another, and another ad infinitum. By 17:00 I do not even know whether I'm hot or not!
