It's piping hot in Blighty - where are you working

ended 30. July 2024

It's piping hot in Blighty this week. If any of you are working in curious or out-of-the-ordinary places, like a paddling pool with a laptop, on a rowing boat, surrounded by 6 Argos fans, sat in an iced bath or on the end of Southend pier, tell us about it - and add pics to your media packs.

WiFi ready; work steady. Emails, financial reports, WhatsApps, Newspage responses—I’ve got it covered. Now, where's the pool boy with my (virgin) mojito?

Working from a bench today in Bradford on Avon's CBD. Surprisingly productive. Although I may have to clock off early to cool down at the Three Horseshoes later.

Can't beat working on the beach. We live within a 3-minute walk to one of the best beaches on the Isle of Wight and good lord are we glad we do.

Our brewery is in an industrial unit, with the office up in the roof. Most of the year it's absolutely freezing, but on really hot days like today it gets stifling. By the end of the afternoon you lose the ability to think, it's so airless. So we take breaks and have our meetings down in the cool room, which keeps the beer at a nice chill 12 degrees. We can even treat ourselves to a nice cold beer, like our 1% low alc beer, to keep hydrated.
