    What's wrong with winter - warm, cosy evenings indoors or freezing cold rain in your face when you're out running (for pleasure!).

    Must admit I don't like walking to work in the dark - but then I do start at the crack of dawn!

    :wink:

    But you have to be at a country pub with a cold beer, in the beer garden or it just isnt the same!

    Ahh yes, sitting in the garden withcricket on the radio, a large Pimms and my laptop, pretending to work.

    Can't stand cider despite being a westcountry boy - all tastes like sour apple juice to me.

    Re:Summer

    Ah yes, the summer. Be it in my own back yard or in a beer garden with a pint of ice cold Guinness, pure bliss.

    Also it means I get to go to work in the daylight both ways, woohoo!!

    Re:Summer

    Welcome to the forums by the way DAW1986 (don't tell me, is that your initials and year of birth or are you just an android?)

    I remember tutor glares many years ago, never to be forgotten.

    Gone are the days when summers were long and hot and winters were very cold. The summer of '76, the stuff of legends!!

    Re:Summer

    Summer of 76 - remember it well - and the winter of 76/77 or was it 77/78 - we were snowed in for 2 weeks with snowdrifts above the hedgerows - absolutely brilliant no school!

    Malcolm - you are probably the only one as old as me, but do you remember the power strikes in the 70s? Hubby and I were talking about it the other day, and neither of us remember them :oops: and we should do.

    Re:Summer

    My parents got engaged in Summer '77. (I wasn't born for another six years)

    Actually, my Dad was born in the February of '47, which apparently was one of the worst winters of the century.

    GJP are my initials (the J stands for Jenius), but I can't remember where 104 comes from. I think it was my membership number for a club or gym or something.

    Now to make me really old - and to get back to the original question - I want a really hot May, as we are having a party for our 20th wedding anniversary :shock:

    Thanks Annette - I feel really proud of it - it hasn't been easy at times. If nothing else, it proves all the "you're too young to get married, it will never last" people wrong!!!!

    After all I was only 22 at the time.
