Oh yes, I’m in that club Bluebelle, blue skies, all meals in the garden, nice long g&t in the evening before watering all the plants as the shadows lengthen, paddling in the sea and listening to the children shrieking as they get up to their chests in the cold Irish Sea. Flowers in full colour, fruit ripening on the trees, what a wonderful world when the sun shines.
More please, more, more.

Though the hot weather isn’t very good for me, I love it, for the fun and joy it brings to the youngsters. While I lie under the fan, I’m receiving pictures of my little grandchildren, frolicking about. The baby, starkers, toddling around the garden. My teenage granddaughter catching up with her tan, and my fake-tan-mad d.I.l. is saving a few pounds.
The little ones who live opposite, and those who live behind me, have got their giant pools out and are having the time of their life. Screaming and squealing echos through the neighbourhood . What’s not to like about the sun??

I enjoy it very much so long as I'm not required to do anything that involves physical effort.

I don’t want this thread to be full of ‘oh it’s dreadful s’ there’s already two or more threads like that, but is there anyone else who actually enjoys a few REAL summer days …..in the summer.
I get quite down when I see cool, grey, windy or rainy summer days as our season is so short
I ve finished work and I m sitting in the garden with a coffee the kids next door have a pool in the garden and are butt naked jumping in and out screaming with delight, the swift’s are screeching and flying like jet planes and the seagulls calling to each other The sky is blue and the sun is strong (for once)
I could sing ( if I could hold a tune)
Is there anyone at all ?
