Survivors Of The 1976 Heatwave To Be Offered Counselling 14:05 - Jun 24 with 2771 viewsSaintNick

Those of us who lived through it back in 76, received no help from the authorities at the time, apparently Andy Burnham will be recognising this as soon as he becomes PM and will role out counselling for those that survived through that summer.

Not for us was the luxury of schools closing, air conditioning cheap ice cream & ice making machines.

We just had to carry on regardless and many of us suffered the condition that only recently has been recognised.

I am of course talking PHS, or to give it it's full name Post Heatwave Stress.

Only if you live north of the Watford Gap as apparently Southerners have had it so good in the last millennium than we can survive without Government handouts

I am one of those survivors of the 1976 heatwave and I will never forget that year, sweltering working in a dry cleaners in Brighton aged 19, pressing clothes on a steam press and also being able to see Saints win the FA Cup, what a year that was! Happy Days!

I was at Assen in Holland in June that year watching the 500cc motorcycle GP and Barry Sheene winning on his way to the becoming world 500cc champion.

At the circuit they actually ran out of cold beer.

I do like a good Bakewell tart . I also like to take the chocolate off the top of a mars bar to leave the toffee exposed then take the chocolate off the rest of the bar before devouring the rest .

Not to mention massive balls of ladybirds at Lee-on-Solent beach - hundreds of them in one big ball. Strange phenomenon.

I was in Brighton in 76 and remember thinking in May 'how long is this ridiculous heat going on for'. It didn't rain for another 4 1/2 months, in September.

I remember how few cars had aircon back in 1976, only the posh limos.

I was working in West London and the heat and pollution was a joy to behold

How long before the Net Zero Police start calling for aircons to be removed from cars

So Long and Thanks for all the Fish
