How do you intend to make YOUR summer special?

[Summercocktailsinthesnow]

Feeling really sad that overseas holidays are now almost certainly off the cards, and we will be lucky if we even make it out of lockdown entirely now.

Can I ask how you are going to make your summer special? How you are going to enjoy it? What are your plans to make the most of it? We need cheering up!

I started a thread about feeling so flat still earlier in the week, and so many of us feel the same, so now maybe we can reflect on what there is to look forward to, because I am struggling a little with the fact things feel very very far from 'normal'

Hopefully by going into level 2

By enjoying our garden, I’m allergic to wasps and summer in normally a nightmare but we’ve invested in a clear dome that’s just gone up in the garden fitted out with relaxing chairs, rug and table

Having spent the last 2 months planting a lovely new boarder we’re going to watch it settle and grow and enjoy all the birds that already visit

Unless it's on the red list I'll be off to Spain like a shot. I went last summer and it was absolutely wonderful, it's literally the only thing keeping me going.
