Here Comes the Sun

Summer has arrived and with it longer days and less clothes. It has taken me a little longer this year to warm up to the idea but it has finally happened this week and being half term I’ve made the most of it.
Drinking wine in the garden and eating bread, olives, cheese and salady things. Trying to be healthy and failing mostly but its back to work next week and if you can’t gain half a stone on holiday when can you?
Yesterday we cycled to a little country pub we know and sat out by the river drinking pear cider and eating chips; getting excited about our upcoming jolly to the south of France. It was an idyllic day and there aren’t enough of them. Everything has to come together at the right moment, the weather, the mood, the right friends being free. With this being the start of English Summertime I fear it maybe over before it’s begun. This is why the other half and I have made a deal to make the most of each day, for the second year running, weather permitting or otherwise. We did it last year and whilst everyone else was moaning about not having much in the way of sunshine we had a great summer that cost very little and was lots of fun. So I urge everyone to do the same. It’s all weather so enjoy it for what it is come rain or come shine.
