THE TOP FIVE REASONS A GREEN KEEPER KNOWS IT'S BLOODY HOT!

The top 5 reasons a green keeper knows it's bloody hot ........ 5) - The irrigation pressure light comes on, the irrigation shuts down and all because of a melted contact switch ! 4) - The greenstaff request separate break times...  !! 3) - Drenched in sweat..... Skin feels like it's burning at 50 degrees........Only problem is he is the shed fixing the irrigation controller and its 11pm at NIGHT!!! 2) - He turns the cold water tap on, only to have to wait 10 minutes so he doesn't burn himself ! And the number 1 reason a Green keeper knows it's bloody hot is............................................ 1) - He starts to sweat when he is Hand Watering !!!!!!!!!! ha ha Sorry just the lighter side of some shed banter when conditions are pushing you to the limit. I will update the serious stuff tomorrow after taking a couple of pics.
