Aibu to be utterly pig sick of still having the heating on in June!

[Dowser]

Every year it seems to be the same, we have the longest day June 21 or thereabouts and you can count on one hand how many days you've actually spent not wearing a cardi, shrug, light jacket or warm fleece and have gone bare legged in sandals and a sun dress.

So far my tally is one!

We've had a couple of days away and the house is freezing. The warmest room ie the one with only 1 outside wall shows a temp of 19 which means the other rooms ie the living room is about 14 .

So with leaden grey skies outside, and a shower of rain...the heating is well and truly on.

Yayyy!ive found summer. It's been hiding in a little pocket of south Wales / Somerset and Dorset.

Yesterday was a no stocking day. The first in weeks!

[ilovesooty]

I went to an outdoor event in a t-shirt last night. I'm in West Yorkshire.

[Dowser]

How's everyone doing? Been in s Wales since aug 1 . First few days at least stayed dry but I went out in fleece and lightweight boots. Wednesday started off well then rained and got v chilly. Thursday got out lovely and yesterday got to 20 degrees and I'm a bit crispy with the sun.

Hope people north of the border got their share too.

They said on the radio that there was a frost in Northern Ireland last night. According to the Met Office, it is a bit unusual.

And I'm still saying it in July.

Had heating on for acouple of times this week.

Maybe just an hour a couple of times in the day.

I old maybe tough it out. Two jumpers instead of one...but life's too short.

Well, clearly a Flood of Biblical Proportions has arrived now - I wish I had started building an arch earlier

My annual leave started yesterday.
We are staying in Scotland.

Sun at last!! No heating on for two days now! Whoop!

[Dowser]

No heating on here for two days now. We've got sunshine and heat with it.

How are you doing Scotland?

Evil wolf my oh bought me one of those sad lamps in February because I was so tired and dragging myself around. It did help.

You might find getting one helps you too.

Another good day promised here as well.
Yesterday got to about 26-28. That's hot enough. Thats sun dress weather.

I was thinking about this thread today, when I had to turn on the kitchen light at 1pm, because it was so grey and gloomy here.

I look forward to summer, because the sunlight makes me happier - I know I struggle more with depression in the winter, when the days are short and dark. I need the lift that the brighter summer weather gives me, and this year I don't feel I am getting it.

[Bunbaker]

Great joy!

The thermometer has crept over 20 degrees here for the first time in absolutely ages.

I will kill anyone who complains it is too hot.

[Dowser]

Oh Great Joy! The sun got out for about 3 hours yesterday afternoon and I changed Into a sun dress.

Optimistically wearing a sun dress today aNd bare legged....but for how long ?
Those clouds are ga the ring thick and fast :-(

[Momagain1]

Not here! Last day of school, and it should be bucketing down when they let out and it is expected to keep at it for the next week. DH just left on a 10 day business trip. i will go mad stuck indoors alone with DS that long.

Told DH I seriously might take DS somewhere sunny like London, for a few days!

[Orangeanddemons]

Crikey! There's a big round orange thing in the sky. What on earth can it be?!

[PacificDogwood]

Sun's shining here this afternoon, but apparently the weather is going to turn again tomorrow.
If this carries on I will not need to shave my legs all summer…

[DeeCayed]

Lashed down yesterday for most of the day, today is cold and grey. It's df's birthday and we usually have a good couple of days to be able to have a birthday bbq but it's not looking like it'll happen anytime soon. As for the garden its a jungle out there!

[mateysmum]

Sorry to tell you folks, but it's lovely in the south west again. Not boiling but wall to wall sunshine and have dried 2 loads of washing outside today. Yesterday I was in Durham, pissing it down and 12c, drove home and when we got west of Nottingham, sun came out and it was 18c.

I think the East of the country is having the cold weather, but after the floods of last year, I think it's time we had a bit of sun here. Pity we can't all have it at the same time.

[RavioliOnToast]

mines on again now. I feel a bit under the weather like so don't know if thats influencing my shivering

[Dowser]

I hope I won't be saying this in July....:-(

[Dowser]

We had something to do today that involved nice weather ...( looks up at leaden grey skies, heating on again to get rid of dank air.)

Oh well! I'm not 6 feet under the ground so today is a good day.....!

[Orangeanddemons]

Same old, same old.....

[Dowser]

This is getting beyond a Joke.

Absolutely piggin freezin!

Washed OH's shirts. Didn't get them anywhere near the line as they are all on radiatorsand yes the hearing went on.

Been busy in and out all evening. Just came in and the heating is on for 10 mins so we can get undressed for bed.

Blowing a gale outside .

How are the southerners doing? Is it still nice and hot?

[Rinkydinkypink]

Put ours on for an hour tonight. It's been 12 oc for days!
