    Two summers ago it reached 40°C in fucking Scotland.

    I unironically bought some kaftans for my wardrobe because I was fucking dying in jeans and t-shirt.

        What you say seems like a fact (and is backed up by, well, a fact) however, bro says he bought kaftans. So, I’m going with kaftan bro, not some kilt wearing know it all.
