The Summer has gone.Strange that
I can't recall it ever arriving.
Anyway - what's with this constant bleedin' rain? Is this the global warming effect?
Yesterday - me and kid Pineapple played a game of tennis in torrential rain. It never let up the whole time. Every time I served - the rain poured into my eyes and the ball skidded along the ground as if on ice.
It was quite a laugh really, and I appreciate that we did look like a pair of lunatics. One old bloke (me) and a young bloke (kid P) running around in deep puddles chopping at a sodden ball.
But By Gawd - we are British after all - and a few torrential downpours wont defeat us.
The little monkey beat me.
Still - there are folks suffering floods - and a few drops of rain at tennis is nothing in comparison.

We take our hats off to you Mr P.
We would never have lost the Empire with that kind of spirit.
What? You lost that Empire? How did that happen?
Our summer pretty much sucked this year. Until now, having some beautiful weather now. My camping trip tomorrow should be great.
Ms Moon
Yup - one minute it was there (the Empire) and the next....gone..
Just like that
We (the British) sat down, discussed it (like the gents we are) and decided to lose it....
Sheer humanity on our part.
Good spot though
P nearly slipped up there (like on the tennis court)

P can see that you are a chap of deep irony.
Your summer sucked this year?
What?
You mean that you didnt get 100% sunshine? Only 75% perhaps.
Good Gawd
We had rain for the WHOLE of the summer - apart from last Saturday.
And now you're having some beautiful weather.
So cruel....
Hope you have a good holiday though.
Try living on the west coast of Canada where it rains days, no, weeks at a time.

Wow
Is that an invitation?
I would love to come over to Canada to be with you...rain or shine
I am packing my bags right away
Look at me- I'm cryin' a river for you....
:-)

Listen
Can you explain that line:
"I Patrick an a git to the people"...
What is "an a git"?
Anyway
I have asked to borrow a fiver off you and with you being an git to the people - P was hoping the fiver would arrive.
Where is it?
We've had so much rain down here I am beginning to grow webbed feet.......
MJ is correct, I think the Pacfic Northwest has the exact weather England has... except for the accent.
Our summer came and went... poof!
Who are you calling a poof?
Mr P? Surely not
Swizz
And still our water bills go up !
I'm going to invest in five large butts and rig them into my water system - you watch ... next year will be glorious weather.
Oh, I could have savoured that moment. And theres me, at No.2, Monks Leys Terrace, Lincoln. Where do you live, you feckin' gobshite?
