fond memories of going into a warhammer store on like the hottest day of summer that year as a teen and it smelling really bad.

oh and also because they had no water available i literally passed out while standing up to play a game with some guy more than twice my age who was basically doing every "that guy" tactic imaginable (he'd at least painted his models though to be fair)

Hot weather is more forgivable (if you develop that sweat layer between the bus and the games store), but seriously wash your clothes daily and your butt whenever you shower (which may be twice daily depending on the environment). Also bring water everywhere (stores are so weird about letting people use the employee bathroom, even for regulars)

That said, I was recently on a camping trip where it was around 36 degrees celsius and dusty as hell and the showers went down because sewage outflow filled up. Everyone felt super gross and smelly.
