Am I the only person on MN who loves the summer?

Me too OP!
I love it. I get awful SAD in the winter.

I love every season, but to have a stretch of warm and sunny days feels like a real treat.

I love summers now that I am back living by the sea!

I love it - the hotter the better

blondesland is hotter then tenerife this weekend 🌞🌞

How it was yesterday was just right, it reached 27 where I was but cooled down a bit in the evening so the bed wasn't too hot, perfect.

Me me me. I'm in the garden in a summer dress having my breakfast. It's beautiful.

I absolutely love this weather and the summer. I love sitting looking at blue skies listening to the birds tweeting and the bees buzzing. I hate being cold and last night I could sit outside without a jumper for the first time this year. Bring it on!

I bloody love it. Bring on the heat.

I stuck my head out the window late last night and could actually smell summer, can’t describe it but it gave me such a lift. I’d love summer a lot more if I didn’t have purple legs that repell even fake tan though

I love british summer, warm days, long evenings. Flowers, plants, bugs, birds. I can actually do things after work like ride my bike. Snuggling under a blanket is what I do try to get through the shit that is winter because I cant do what I like to do in summer

I genuinely think we whip ourselves up into some sort of heatwave hysteria in the UK these days, everytime there's a risk of it getting a bit hot we talk about it so much it panics people. Fair enough when it's been in the high 30s but I'm sure yesterday felt like a completely normal british summer yet people were complaining at 9am before the heatwave had even started

This is the drama that people talk about on MN. It was 27 degrees here yesterday, nothing about 27 stops you walking or gardening or mucking out stables

I love summer. It hates pale skinned and pollen allergy me though.

Love this time of year. Much easier to get up for a 7am start at work when it’s already day time when you get up. Love the light evenings when you don’t finish work until 6pm and can still get outside for a while in the sunshine.

I like pottering in the garden and seeing all the life and scent of flowers. At the moment my honeysuckle smells amazing.

Not quite so keen on working in temps over 25C but my workplace has recently installed air con/heating units that will help this summer. Don’t mind the heat if I’m not working in it as I have a lovely tree to lay under.

My least fav time of year is Nov-Jan when it’s constantly dark.

My aches and pains largely disappear during the hot weather so bring it!

You could stay a bit longer, we get fabulous warm and sunny autumns in NZ.

I love the Summer! Life is so much nicer when it’s sunny!

Fine to love summer, fine to love winter. Fine to celebrate and be happy with either but these posts are always about slagging off other people’s preferences and that’s a bit weird.
I prefer cold and winter but like summer because it means it’s nearly autumn again

MN is the home of moaners and venters. It’s a bubble that doesn’t accurately represent the real world.

I am happy for all of you with school aged children to be able to do outdoor activities instead of scratching around looking for something to do in relentless rain.

Enjoy your half term.

I love all the seasons!

So excited for this beautiful half term week!

I think I'm a foot in both camps!
I love a proper summer, endless sunny days ideally with a soft breeze. Getting up in a morning and chucking a dress on knowing you will be perfectly warm all day. It even helps mine and my husbands health issues, if I was a victorian lady of means I'd have been packed off to the Mediterranean to improve my constitution 🤣
However (this is the bit you will hate me for!) I am absolutely the twat that loves 'cosy' autumn/winter vibes as well! I'm always a bit excited when it is dark by 4pm and I can come home, light the fire and sit in the lounge surrounded by Christmas lights 🤭
I think the problem we have in the UK is that rather than having distinguishable summer and winter weather it is all starting to blend into one long dreary season of about twelve degrees and rain. The colour we see most of is grey and that is just depressing. If we had a long hot summer followed by a proper cold, snowy winter I would be thrilled!

I like it apart from choosing footwear, boots are much easier and comfier. I wore my sandals yesterday for the first time, done my usual walk to the shops, 2-3 miles in all, there and back and have now got a poor rubbed toe.

Another summer lover here. The living really is easy - long days, light clothes, washing drying outside, the garden in full bloom, the sun warming your bones. Beautiful.

I cam just about understand some people dont like being sweaty. But yeah until I went on MM I didn't realise there was anyone who actually liked long dark nights for months on end. I find that really weird tbh.
