A 'genius' £1 hack to get to sleep in the sweltering heatwave which 'can end nights of misery' has been put to the test.
Scots homes, in general, just aren't made for dealing with this hot weather. There's no built-in air-con or ceiling fans, and the walls, windows and loft are generally well insulated to keep the heat in during the winter months.
However on the odd occasion when we do have a heatwave, the last thing we need is being stuck in, what starts to feel like, a sauna. A good night's sleep can become a real challenge.
