OAPs embrace heatwave by unbuttoning top button of their duffel coats
Senior citizens across Wales have said they might even turn down their heating
OAPs across Wales have embraced this week’s scorching heatwave by announcing that they’ll be unbuttoning the top buttons of their duffel coats.
Senior citizens across Wales have said they might even turn down their heating as temperatures are set to reach 500°C.
OAP Glenys Wrinkles told WalesOnCraic:
“It’s been getting a little bit warm for us oldies but as you know, we do like to moan about how cold we are, even in a heatwave. The people on the telly have told us to expect warmer weather but unless we reach the same temperature as the sun, we’re unlikely to be taking off our duffel coats. We may unbutton our top button, which will help with the ventilation and stop us from smelling too much like chicken soup.”
The heatwave is expected to last until after Coronation Street on Thursday.
“We don’t know what’s going on with this weather system at the moment. It’s kind of got out of hand and we think it’s to do with all those people using under-arm deodorants back in the 1980s. Either way, it’s going to be piggin’ hot and I suspect that it’ll trigger lots of people moaning about how hot it is. They love that sort of thing.”
Cooler weather is expected later in the week.
“We’ll get through this week and hopefully we’ll have our top buttons done back up by the weekend,” added Mrs Wrinkles.
