I think it’s widely accepted that most people in the UK prefer Summer.
On mumsnet people seem to get really angry at anyone who doesn’t like Summer, but it’s not like anyone can control the weather is it?
I do love certain things about Summer. The lighter nights, the greenery and flowers, going on holiday, the breezy evenings. Oh and hanging washing on the line.
But there are some things I loathe about it. Personally if the temperature gets above about 26c for a few days I find it completely unbearable. The weather here is so erratic, torrential rain cold and grey to sweltering heat.
Where I live all the idiots come out on mopeds and quad bikes racing around the roads dangerously, I’ve Judy come home from the shop with ds and there’s some guy zooming down my road shirtless on a motorbike. It’s noisy and dangerous.
Trying to sleep in the very hot weather, dh bloody sweats all Summer, it’s too noisy with the window open so it just makes for an uncomfortable nights sleep.
Cold weather doesn’t bother me, I’m more comfortable outdoors in Winter, I seem to be much better at regulating my temperature in the cold than in the hot.
