Earl Aelfheah Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Louisa's post was in the spirit of the thread, so totally unreasonable to criticise IMO.

Happily give up miles as well, but this thread is specific to summer.Please emigrate to isolationist USA and take your Express and Telegraph readers with you.

maxxi Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 That on buses (esp. new routemasters) the poles (small 'p'), rails (the plural noun not the verb) and hand-holds (nothing to do with the climbing wall at Urban Ascent) are permanently greeeeeazy.

numbers Posted July 23, 2015 Author Share Posted July 23, 2015 Glad I'm not the only one looking forward to Autumn!Awful feet & sandals unsurprisingly gets a unanimous no-no. I don't believe people look happier in the sunshine, more like hot & bothered & pretty tetchy with it. On that note, I'm going to add insect bites & stinky sun block whilst I'm here.

stringvest Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Sorry for being toooo obvious !! What about trying to clean the windows and when you have finished and the sun shines, they LOOK WORSE THAN WHEN YOU STARTED.Getting home with part defrosted shopping, then when you try to separate the food to cook it, it has welded itself together.My husband, every five minutes : it's too hot, it's too hot ...

I thought I was going to struggle to find anything to agree with on this thread as though there are things that bug me about summer (the odd night when it's too hot to sleep), the longer hours of daylight trump anything the other seasons have to offer.But this... oh yes. My boyfriend does it. He even admitted he likes doing it to be annoying once. And it is... grrr.I am off work this summer and it's definitely improved by not having to commute on hot days, although on the sweatiest of days I could almost go in for the air-conditioning.
