I start the day off with a pint glass of water and lemon before I go to the pool, sets my digestive system up for the day. Depending on how hot it gets I drink around a litre of water through the day, summer and winter, often more in the summer.

I make sure the birds have plenty of water for bathing and drinking.. I also put water out for the creatures that are at ground level.. I put pebbles in the water so the flying creatures can settle on a stone in order to get a drink..

I do exactly the same 🙂 I have 2 dishes out, 1 for bathing and drinking and one shallow one with a yellow bee platform. Yesterday the water had to be refreshed several times as it got too warm IMO.

I drink a glass of water when I think about it.. I don't have a goal or or measure my water intake..
In this heatwave I fill a jug of cold water add freshly squeezed lemon juice and pop it in the fridge..
I also drink tea and one coffee a day.. I think common sense has a lot to do with it..

Another hot day coming.
Marge and I just sit naked in the house.  No-one's looking.
Unfortunately, though, yesterday the window cleaner came at exactly 9am.  He rang the bell and I knew I had to get to the door toot sweet or he'd be gone.  Underpants quickly on and went to let him know we're here and OK to clean the windows.
He didn't turn a hair.  He's probably already encountered several other people in a state of undress.

Quote from: Silver Tabby on June 25, 2026, 07:08:15 AMI normally drink about two litres of water a day - but it has to be really cold - keep refilling bottles and leaving them in the 'fridge.  Have been drinking more because of this heat.  I also drink tea first thing in the mornings to kick start the day.
2 litres?   That's about 4 pints in old money isn't it?   
Blimey,  I'd never be out the loo.  

Is that your normal amount,  or just because of this heatwave?

He'd only dance when it was dark
One night he was frolicking in the local park
He had a thought - most profound
and fell on the ground 
People thought he was having a lark.
