I love summer..

😁😁😁
Or in it!!

I am not a Nervous Nellie usually!

Go and hide behind one of your hampers!🤣🤣🤣

OH!!

I was sitting in the conservatory, the thunder was rumbling gently but then there was an enormous flash of lightning right in my face and the loudest clap of thunder I've ever heard in my life. It was truly terrifying!!
Storms don't normally faze me but I've rushed into the sitting room, heart pounding!
🌩

Now it's started raining thank goodness.

Sounds as though we should all be in Australia!

I love the summer... but am currently knocked for six by hay-fever! Hope it will soon pass.

Sun cheers. Long days full of light. Light clothes. What I've been waiting for all the long winter.
Yes, tend to sit out on the shade or indoors now looking out but the looking out on sun on the garden and out and about - and the heat relaxes me as it slows me down no bad thing.

Two of the favourite things that I love about summer …..I love heading out to the gym early morning just in my workout clothes and not bothering about grabbing a coat. And I also love pottering around in the garden in the warm evenings…..a little watering, a little weeding and not hurrying to go back indoors until it’s practically dark!

Light evenings
Feeling more optimistic

Not wearing a coat
Roses in full bloom

Love the long days, here in the far north of Scotland it's light nearly all night, makes up for the long dark days of winter. Lovely to just be in tee shirts and shorts for a change and not having to wear several layers!! The birds singing and everything flourishing is a great pick me up, does the soul good.

I was born in the middle of January, in wartime. My birthday is nearly February, which is the beginning of spring, which is nearly summer, at last! HOORAY! I love everything about summer, long days, warm weather,childhood memories of picnics, trips to Cornwall, days on the river cycling, swimming, picking fruit, shelling peas. Such happy days, even after all these years, I just love summer.

Yes, I like summer if and when it is as it is this year - warm, sunny and no rain. But I would like it a bit hotter than it is right now, Twenty-something centigrade is not hot to me.

Love everything about summer...bees galore on my cottage garden plants, warmth,so many hours of light, practically live in the garden...right now our 10month old cocker spaniel is kissing one of the horses that is leaning over the fence...birds are singing, beautiful shaped fluffy clouds in the bluest sky....slightest of breezes...glass of wine calling.....Wonderful.....lifes very real problems seem easier to cope with..🌻🌻🌻

Free concerts in the park, picnic dinner, under the trees.

Sitting out with my DH in the garden. It’s so heavenly with the warm sunshine. Enjoying a glass of wine and an ice lolly. Looking at our beautiful flowers. I just feel more positive in the sunshine. Wondering what I can flavour the pork ribs with for the bbq tonight. I love everything about summer just not the hot clammy nights.

I enjoy walking the dog without having to put on heavy raincoat, hat, scarf and gloves. Also, long hours of daylight, and not having to switch on the heating.

Also, washing drying outside in a couple of hours, and not hanging round the house waiting to dry.

I put cotton sheets and a big duvet cover out to dry yesterday afternoon and they were dry within the hour in the lovely warm breeze at the seaside.

And the roses!!! So beautiful this year.

Yes, our roses are quite amazing this year, the best I can remember. And there is so much fruit on the trees, just have to hope it doesn't all fall off during this hot spell.

Having warm hands and feet!

What a welcoming, positive post Sago. I love everything that you do, plus the fragrance of my beautiful Philadelphus, Roses and herbs as soon as I come out of my back door. Sitting in the garden watching and listening to the birds and hearing the buzz of bees on my wildlife friendly plants. Bliss after the long, dark, wet days of Winter. 😊

Roses blooming, long days and sunshine is a bonus!

Love the summer love everything about it. Everyone looks happier lovely summer dresses sandals longer days. Pain easing. Love it all long may it last x

Summer always bring to mind the Porgy and Bess song, with the line “Summer time, and the living is easy”.

I love summer. The long days, bees buzzing, children playing. Unfortunately my allergies do not and I’m stuck indoors with the windows shut, feeling very sorry for myself.
