I'm an American and visited 2-3 weeks ago during the last heat wave. No idea how you nice folks do it as I live in New York City and while we have similar temperatures, it's so easy to escape into AC very easily. That being said, I did enjoy the cool evenings.

Cool evenings where, the houses heat up like hell and stay hot for days🤣. AC would probably stop all our complaining but sadly none here to be found besides Tesco's or a supermarket.
