I love the long evenings
Theres nothing I dislike about Summer - Its all good

My favourite thing is getting the washing washed and dried the same day and my worst thing in the midges and clegs.

I love the feeling of freedom in summer where I don't have to don many layers of clothing to be warm. However, the downside to this is biting insects then find me easy pickings so I have to put up with the bites or cover up. Sprays etc don't seem to work for me!

I love eating fruit and veg from my garden but hate the pests that eat them too !

I love the sunshine but I don't like the headaches that come with the heat. It helps if I wear a hat.

Loving Picnics in the park, hating having to work in the glorious weather

My favourite is the anticipation of long summer days, waking up to sunshine and a gentle breeze accompanied by sweet birdsong. Walks through poppy filled cornfields and watching butterflies flitting through the buddliea, dragon flies grazing the pond and hedgerow and bees hoovering up pollen on rainbowed flowers whilst I curl up on the hammock to enjoy my latest book.
The worst part of summer is the children going back to school, heralding the start of autumn. The slight nip in the air, the extra layer to keep warm. The drunken wasps looking for their next victim. Mosquitoes buzzing , ready to bite sneakily, but revealed by my allergic red , mountainous swellings! But the sadness at summer's irritations are redeemed by knowing late summer will put on it's beautiful final display of russet cloaked trees , the flight of summer birds, that will return...And the darker nights will enable me to snuggle up on my comfy sofa in front of a glorious flame filled fire with another good read. Life is good !

I love being able to eat outside and enjoy the sunshine with friends and family.
I hate all the insects flying about and wasps that seem to think I make a good meal.

My favourite thing about summer is spending lots of time outside. I love being in the garden with the family.
The worst thing is how hot the dogs get. I have giant breeds with big coats. Even though we cut them short they struggle and we have to wait until after 9 to walk them and some days they don't get walked xx

I love the freedom that the warmer days give me to go out for the day with my family but I hate it when it gets too hot to sleep at night

The lovely long summer days, giving you more time to indulge in reading a good book or two!
Forgetting to wear sunscreen!

Favourite thing is the lovely weather and spending time with family and friends maybe at a bbq or in a beer garden. Least favourite is all those pesky flies that keep bugging you!

favourite thing used to be taking Grandchildren camping but they are in their thirties now so now my favourite is Nicholls Icecream in Parkgate. Another favourite is sitting in the garden in the evening with a glass of wine. Least favourite is mosquitoes which make a beeline for me but ignore my husband.

I love the sun but hate the flies in the house!

Fave. The heat
Least fave. The heat

Loving that everyone seems so much more relaxed, perhaps as there's fewer cars on the road. Worst thing is it can get too hot and uncomfortable for sleeping when the temperature gets too high.

I love spending time in the Garden with family and friends having BBQs. I hate the hot stuffy night when it is so hard to sleep

I love that people smile more during the summer.
I dislike how difficult it is to sleep. You have the choice between windows open and too noisy to sleep, or windows closed and it's too hot.

I don't like the heat and bugs,I like it because my birthday is in august!

I love long, light summer evenings, but dislike wasps

Just love sitting in the garden on a lovely summer's evening with a good book and a glass of wine and just relaxing but really do hate having to do the gardening in the summer when its so hot

Best is eating outdoors, worst is flying ants!

seeing my garden blossom and grow with the raspberries and strawberries is just the best - worst thing is in Autumn when the apples are ready, have to chop and freeze them ready for later- can't give away much as we live on the site of an old orchard and there are several apple trees up and down the street and they are all ready at the same time

My least favourite is that I suffer from hay fever.
My favourite is setting the paddling pool up and having my seven grandchildren over splashing around and having fun.

I love being able to play golf in shorts and a polo shirt instead of four layers in the winter squashing around in the mud. I do not like the uncomfortable nights where it is too hot to sleep.
