The most hilarious and stubbornly British reactions to the heatwave
After what felt like an extremely drawn out winter, most of the UK are seeing increased temperatures today, which only look set to rise over the weekend. Many are dubbing it a heatwave.
While London look set to experience highs of around 23 degrees celsius, much of Scotland and the North of England will only reach the 15 or 16 degree mark.

While the news want us to believe it's hotter here than in Spain or Italy, the majority of us are remaining calm and realistic
It’s so hot in Britain you could crack an egg on the pavement and it would just kind of sit there all raw #heatwave

It's not rained for 10 minutes in Manchester so that counts as a #heatwave right?

It's been so long since we've seen the sun that some of us have actually forgotten how to cope
