After a 9.30-5.30 day in the sun and drinking about 3 litres. I've ended the day with mild heat exhaustion. And mild sunburn!

 

I was chipping a brash pile accumulated over 6 months. A full day and it's still needing a few hours tomorrow morning!

 

Just a message to say make sure you drink more than enough and if you feel tired have a minute!

laddo had day off sick thursday, throwin up etc, either from heat or fumes from hedge trimmers, or both, he was sat in the sun all dinnertime + working all day in sun, need to drink before you get thirsty, or maybe he wanted a day off in the sun with his bird? hmm

'laddo' is your employee?

'laddo' is my younger bro,

 

Now, if he was an employee , Ed, I would advise sun cream, plenty of water, and rest breaks, and aspen petrol etc.

 

If its your little brother, then then kick his arse, and tell him not to be so gay, and get on with it. :biggrin::lol:
