To think we should get three “weather passes” a year

Slightly tongue in cheek and inspired by how disgusting this weather is, but I’d love three days a year where this weather means I could just stay in bed.

I’m fed up of being damp and cold!

I'd rather have them for when it's too hot to work!

I'm retired and I still think it's a great idea! There's always pressure to be doing something useful, and I do have to get up today, but looking at the driving rain really makes me wish I could just stay in bed with the cat.

But do you save them in wi ter in hope for a glorious summer... or use them on horrible dreary days, then have to work in a heatwave?

I’d much rather be at work in a heatwave! Days like today make me want to hide under my duvet all day

I kind of get where you're coming from, tongue in cheek fine but.... it's just not how life works as an adult is it? Take annual leave if you're that desperate.

Which is exactly why I said it’s tongue in cheek and an ideal world type of scenario.
