What is your favourite season of the year?

autumn then spring then winter then summer. I loathe heat, get bitten to ribbons by mozzies and have summer hay fever

Summer! Love the warm weather, long sunny days, lightweight clothes and open sandals, eating and drinking al fresco, and as in our previous life, holidays!

All of them really, winter I like the least, hate the cold, dark mornings and afternoons, but I love curling up in front of the fire, I love cold frosty days (as long as I don’t have to drive anywhere)
Right now I’m longing for spring.

Spring! I've been in the garden and although it's cold there's signs of life everywhere (mostly weeds!) OH actually got the mower out today. I've got a couple of big tubs of Tete a Tete daffs in the courtyard that look very jolly and I've dusted off the propagator. Spring is all about looking forward and I think as I get older that's really quite important.

I find myself always looking forward to Spring. I love the weather getting better.

It used to be summer, but I'd say Spring of late, when everything is beginning to green up and crocuses and daffodils appear. I can't wait for warmer weather, although I hate unbearably hot days.

Spring for me without hesitation. Always full of promise and hope. Just lovely.

Spring is definitely my favourite. I love the feeling of optimism, the thought that Summer is coming, and - best of all - the days are growing longer.
I always feel a sense of sadness after June 21, knowing the days will grow shorter.

I hate Summer

I could’ve wrote that word for word myself Fanny!!

Spring especially April and May when the blossom is out.

I’m another one who loves the spring. Winter is behind us and the coming year is full of promise. Everything is so new clean and fresh. I really love seeing the different greens as trees come into leaf. I don’t particularly dislike the other seasons as each has something to enjoy but the month of November just has nothing going for it!

I agree about January, Witzend. It seems such a long, dark, dismal month. As you say, all the brightness of the Christmas season is largely over (certainly by twelfth night), and there are not the signs of spring awakening to brighten us with a hint of what’s to come. I’m always happy to welcome February, because by then, the hours of daylight are gradually increasing even though it’s still the depths of winter.

Autumn, with scrunchy leaves, open fires and late bbq’s, I do enjoy summer as long as it’s not too hot.

Must be a bit weird - I like them all! Maybe it’s a consequence of living for years in a climate where there were only two seasons - hot, and absolutely bloody stinking hot.

The only month I really don’t look forward to is January - all the cheerful Christmas decorations gone, and (usually) too early for even the earliest spring flowers.
But it’s hardly ever as bad as I expect, and always gone in a flash.

I love autumn but love winter too. I'm just not a hot weather person!!

I love Spring too! It’s the promise of lovely weather to come; I love the daffodils and it’s my birthday!

Spring is my favourite, full of new life and hope of better things to come.
Summer next for warmth, long light evenings and enjoying the outdoors.
Autumn for the beautiful colours as everything winds down
I do not like anything about winter.

Summer is my favourite.. I like to be warm and be out and about without worrying about layers of clothes.

Winter is dreary and makes me feel the same.

Bright Spring and Autumn days are ok .

Summer I love love love and spring is gorgeous with all its expectations autumn s ok but the thought of winter coming spoils it for me and I dread winter
I cannot imagine how anyone could hate summer

No; summer is the best season for me. It is a happy season, a holiday season, a visiting season. The best season for colourful summer flowers and the joy of watching the seeds you have planted growing. Summer is full of life. Well, I always feel better in summer, my aches and pains of winter seem to vanish in the warm weather.

My favourite is early autumn because of the leaves changing on the trees, harvest, flowers at their best, busy birds etc. There can be some beautiful days and frosty nights. Next would be spring.

I rather like the mellowness of autumn but it means that winter is on its way and I hate frost and snow. Summer is sometimes too hot for me so I'll go with Spring being the best of all - it means hope for the future and that's something we all need.

All of them! It’s the change from one to the other that I love.
The first inklings of spring; the exuberance of summer, the excesses of autumn, the sparseness of winter...

Honestly every season has its joys. Difficult to choose.

Looking out of the window I can see dear little daffodils, crocus, iris, primroses and early tulips. Glorious, but blimmin’ cold out!
