A few ways to go forth & cool off:
- spray the roof with water repeatedly
- put a fan in the window during the evening, it blows in outside air that's cooler
I'll leave more for you...

Tell the gf she has put weight on during lockdown and wait for the cold shoulder.
You kept quiet about it so far, or you're speaking from experience?
The first one is hardly practical, and the second one does not work these last few nights as the temperature difference is simply not there. Brian
Well it might make a fraction or two difference to the temperature in the loft.
Think I'd go for a fan upstairs in a south facing window blowing out to extract any warm air along with 5. below. But take note of air flow caused by the prevailing wind. You want air in from the cool north.
snipped-for-privacy@gmail.com presented the following explanation :
Turn the aircon on. Best money I ever spent.
Which unit do you have?
Oh, if I must...
For flat roofs it helps a lot. I wouldn't use it on sloping lofted roofs.
blowing in or out have mostly the same result. The upside of blowing in is the coolness is concentrated in one room.
totally depends on the house & current temps whether you want it open or closed at any time.

Well this thread context is summer and it hot outside and requirement to keep inside cooler. If people are daft enough to not draw curtains etc thus letting lots of radiant heat in, then opening doors and windows to "let the heat out", the best they can achieve is making the house the same temp as outdoors.
Curtains drawn and widows/doors closed up keeps a place cooler.
Especially when the van floats away on a torrent of floodwater like some people are getting.
Not here is Sussex though, where is the frigging rain ????
Shut doors and windows and leave de-humidifier running then use regular electric fans. Poor mans air-con.
ALL UP HERE...CARS FLOATING AWAY...
Experience.
I did not tell her that until I had finished shagged her.
Sleep naked and ignore the fact that the whole family have access to the cctv.

whoosh
You could have dropped a hint, like 'the bed seems to be sagging/squeaking more than usual'
