Just drove along my local high street, I counted one person wearing a fleece top (zipped up!!) one person with a padded body warmer and another wearing a winter coat, are they mad??

If you are from the North or South American continents, South Asia or down under, 30*c is still pretty much normal and not hot at all. Its all relative. If we grew up somewhere else and then came here we would be the same. As it is, its a "heatwave"

So? By your logic you'd be asking how many macho young males in our local areas go around topless in winter.

you can always spot a shoplifter wearing big coats in the heat.

I have seen quite a few goths and emos dressed in their heaviest stuff. Leathering up takes a bit of dedication in this weather. I've always wondered why they don't have any goth summerwear like leather shorts and flip flops with skulls on them.

On a serious note I have seen motorcyclists just going out in t-shirts and forgoing the leathers. I get it but should they ever unfortunately be involved in an accident then they risk real injury

I saw a woman in a Parker coat in Morrisons. So it was red hot, and she was indoors, and a Parker coat is one of the warmest coats you can wear, and it was zipped up.

Used to know a chap that had to wear a sweater and jacket in the summer just to keep himself warm.

I mean their top speed is only 30 but if they fall off they can good bye to their skin
