hands up who’s having a shit summer

What a shit summer! Shit weather, recession everywhere and fuck all football on the box!
Ireland’s new “tourist” tax means that hopping over to the Netherlands is chipping into my bank balance, the weather over there is pretty shit too, or at least only when I’m there.
More bombs in Spain, Teenagers murdered in Tel-Aviv, Plane crashes and whatnot

Only highlights have been Psychoville on the box, T? blinder at the Academy, and Charles “Cannibal” Taylor defending himself in the International Criminal Court.

Is anyone else waiting for it all to end? Is it me or are summers getting progressively shitter these last few years and it’s now the winter we look forward to?

I hate hot weather, so this rain doesn’t bother me at all - quite like it when I’m indoors anyway. Other than that, I can’t say I’m having a great time, but I wasn’t before the summer either.

I’m not going anywhere on holiday this summer so it doesn’t really seem like summer anyway…plus I spend more time indoors than out so I’m not overly concerned about the weather (though I think it’s less rainy over here than in the UK).

What are you moaning about, it always rains in Lancashire! And haven’t you noticed we had a heatwave last month, and Sunday and Yesterday were absolutely gorgeous too?

Honestly :p

Matbe you and Jess could get a few candles and an indoor barbie and sit in them under the stairs?

Or move to Yorkshire? ;)

I’m already too close to Yorkshire for comfort, I suspect that is why the weather is so bad.

By all accounts Jess is having much better weather in Northumberland as she holidays with the children and the grandparents…

Dismal to say the least. I work on a farm for a living so it’s pretty shit when you can’t do much because you’re waiting for the ground to dry up.

Dismal, lol I like it

@ Gav - Do you have a blowtorch? You could use that for the sausages and sunburn, and just leave the beers out in your back garden for a few minutes to cool down. Job’s a good-un! ;)

I’ve had a few shit days recently, but I’m not going into that. I started a thread on that matter a few years ago…

Despite that, I’m seeing forwards and upwards, here’s a list-

Started a program to stop drinking
Putting a rights on a few wrongs on a novel that I’ve spent months on with a few people wanting to read it
Poetry evenings/open mic nights
New tattoo, with the possibility of a complete sleeve by the end of September

Personally, rain does piss me off in the summer, but at the same time when its sunny for a few days people start complaining its too hot, so bollocks to that

I don’t know what you people are complaining about; here in So Cal we have blue skies and endless sunshine, beach weather all year round, Disneyland and Vegas within driving distance. It’s fucking horrible! ;-)
