Summer’s lease hath all too short a date

[JayAlfredPrufrock]

I’m glad we aren’t burning like southern Europe but bloody hell, it’s like Autumn.

Clicked just for the great title 😁

but yes, travelling south today to get on a ferry and it has been torrential ALL day. Like October. Just dumping from the sky.

YANBU. Feels like I should be putting a pumpkin out

Hallowe’en cushions in TKMaxx

Someone beat me to it but yes, just clicked to say more threads should have titles from sonnets :)

About 20% of blackberries actually black around us (NW Eng).

Or any poem …

YANBU and the Halloween decorations are in store! Honestly would rather be in southern Europe right now, husband family is from Europe it's 38 and they are in the pool with the pizza oven going whilst I listen to the rain 😢

I was moaning that the whimberry pies were on sale. Far too early in my book.

it's utterly miserable!

Hard to believe how hot it was this time last year! We were away this weekend last year and it was roasting.

The nights are drawing in. #bitter.

This weather suits me, roll on autumn!

I like my seasons. All 4 of them.

This time last year it was 40c and had been dry for weeks.....what a contrast. .

Wearing a thick cardigan in July isn't right!

He that has and a little tiny wit,
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain,
Must make content with his fortunes fit,
Though the rain it raineth every day.

We have a secret weapon to avoid the heat- Wimbledon tennis. You know it will rain then.

To be fair, we've only just finished a "been dry for weeks" period. It was just a bit earlier than last year.

Mmmm whimberry pies. <distracted>

Me too, I am a Celt, we don’t do Summer.

This is for all of those who moaned about the heat.

I want clear skies so I can see the ISS.

Don't mind it being cooler but I'm sick of the rain.

Really hope it brightens up for the school holidays. I don't mind the temperature but the rain can sod off.

At least there probably won't be a hosepipe ban...

St Swithin's day tomorrow... buckle up, we could be in for another 40 days of it 😟

"St Swithin's Day, if it does rain
Full forty days, it will remain
St Swithin's Day, if it be fair
For forty days, t'will rain no more"
