Default Summer is here!

This time last week it was snowing at my mums. Today it is about 25 degrees centigrade. Fair enough, my parents live in the highlands, and it once snowed there in June when I was still in school, but still, What a turn around.

I cannot wait for tomorrow evening. Get off work, find a beer garden and just chill in the warmth. I love the summer.

And yes, I write this knowing full well next week it will once again feel like we live in the artic. Just let me enjoy this whilst it lasts.

Ah, summer, love the heat and sunny skies. Come to Texas, we get 7 months of it.

7 months....we'll be lucky to get 7 days here.

Neal or mods, I've just noticed this is in entirely the wrong board. Would it be possible to move this to the general forum? Wouldn't want to confuse anyone coming here to read up on the continuing adventures of Frau's Skyrim wedding soap opera.

It's only supposed to drop to 15-18ºC tonight.

Windows open, bugs in.

I wondered what'd happened to her, last seen buying Skyrim and now posts in GT are few and far between.

Bugs? More like Neds. But that might just be Glasgow. It's to continue into next week too. Lush. I need to get me some decent beer.

You won't hear me complain about the weather down here
can pretty much ride all year through.

They eat the flies, I like spiders. As long as they don't get in my way with their webs.

But the things are attracted to my desk. Prolly the warm air from the PC. I can't relax with something as big as my hand creeping up the wall 1-2ft from me.

Not talking about them skinny-legged ones. I mean those fat hunting spiders. I've seen them so big I could see the fangs on 'm. I'm just not too excited about anything that won't comfortably fit under a shoe.
