It's even nicer than yesterday. It's hotter but there is a nice cool breeze to keep things in check and the humidity at bay.

Three hours until the Beer Garden, although I think I shall be drinking Gin and Tonic tonight. I'm just in the mood for a G+T.

Another six months till we get summer. Oh well at least it won't snow this winter. At least not where I live.

5 Degrees – Southerners turn on their heating. Geordies plant their gardens.

4 Degrees – Southerners shiver uncontrollably. Geordies Sunbathe.

3 Degrees – Southern cars will not start. Geordies drive with their windows down

2 Degrees – Southerners wear coats, gloves, and wool hats. Geordies
throw a t-shirt on (Girls start wearing mini-skirts)

1 Degree – Southerners begin to Evacuate. Geordies go swimming in the
North Sea.

Zero degrees – Southern landlords turn up the heat. Geordies have the
last barbecue before it gets cold.

Minus 10 Degrees – Southerners cease to exist. Geordies throw on a
lightweight jacket.

Minus 80 Degrees – Polar bears wonder if it’s worth it. Geordie Boy
scouts start wearing long trousers.

Minus 100 Degrees – Santa Claus abandons the North Pole. Geordies put
on their long johns.

Minus 173 Degrees – Alcohol freezes. Geordies become frustrated because
the pubs are shut.

Minus 297 Degrees – Microbiological life starts to disappear. The cows
on Newcastle town moor complain of vets with cold hands.

Minus 460 Degrees – All atomic motion stops. Geordies start to stamp
their feet and blow on their hands.

Minus 500 Degrees – Hell freezes over……….Sunderland qualify for Europe.

Nuts a weather thread...I'm out of here. :03:

Egan 05-25-12 09:47 AM

No, it's a summer thread, in which we discuss all the things that are great about summer, like girls in tiny skirts, cold beer on a hot day, swimming in rivers, the fact sandwiches taste better outside, and girls in tiny skirts.

Ah summer. Sweet, sweet summer. Truly you are the season of letching. I think Shakespear wrote that.

Sailor Steve 05-25-12 09:51 AM

Yep. It comes from his forgotten play A Midsummer Hard Day's Party.

Old Will had a thing for girls in tiny skirts. And bikinis. And birthday suits.

:D

Didn't he build The Globes theatre? Had something on his mind there....:hmmm:

I'll never read The Taming of the Shrew in the same way again!

Enough! There is a Hendricks and Tonic with my name on it awaiting me and I can't get at it for an hour! Friday! Thoust cruelest of days, release me into yon boozy arms!

Summers here, and I am now done with high school! Ah what a great day!

Egan 05-25-12 10:20 AM

Mt boss has gone home! What a sod, he was only in for about a hour all day. I can't think of another human being who is so undeserving of getting out early on a sunny day. It's not as if the ultraviolet is going to help his grey palour any. When he's wearing his favourite polyester suit you can't tell where it ends and his neck and face begin....that's not right.

And here I am, ready for adventure and drinking in the balmy evening, ever a cheeky Shakespearian quote ready on my lips, and he's the one who goes early.

Tonight I'll be starting off with Magners and finishing off with ice coool lager.

In Summer the girls might dress skimpier, but in Winter they need ways to get warm. ;)

As the temperature rises, so doth the sap. I think Pliny wrote that....in pub now, sevetal G n Ts and pints of IPA to the better. Ah, summer. Tiny skirts all over the shop!
