SAD syndrome?

In student days I seem to remember my then boyfriend putting out the paraffin heater by pee'ing on it. It's a wonder we survived those days, what with paraffin heaters and candles everywhere and our minds being in la la land most of the time.

Did he mean to put the paraffin heater out? I mean, is that why he did it, or was it an accident?

He was quite house trained [even when drunk] so I assume he thought he was doing it for a reason.

How odd!
I know we old hippies had some strange ways, but I've never come across that one before!

He was a bit odd; became my ex husband....

At least it didn't rain here on St Swithens day! I am off to Zante to get some sun next week. So need to see blue skies.

I think we might be able to survive the dullness if it was a little warmer. I turned the heating on for a quick burst up until a few days ago. It seems though that this depressing weather may be coming to an end. It certainly will be a relief to those of us who entertain our grandchildren during the summer holidays. It's much easier to be able to get outdoors with them - nice country walks, a day on the beach, picnics etc.

Yes, it was getting every body down I think, My second daughter rang up one evening nearly in tears. I am really fed up she said, I am going for a sun week to Greece. Do you remember that one week when we had summer? lovely, That was the week she went to Greece. It turned out that her friends were browner than her. bett.
