75 degreea here and I'm freezing my butt off. I lived in Las Vegas for 23 years, where the temp gets to about 120 this time of year. I about died last winter when it snowed here. It was very much like the scene in Nightmare Before Christmas when Jack goes to Christmas land. Except I wasn't quite as thrilled with it. Now I understand why everyone here is overweight. Maybe I should jump onboard and get myself a nice protective layer of fat also. Maybe not.

Is not very normal to have such high temperatures at this time. When i was a lil girl i remembered to go to the beach in Algarve in September but was at the 1st 15 days. This hot weather is like this since last week. People continue to go to the beach on weekend. 8)

Damn.. i wanted to try my new fall/winter clothes and this hot weather is destroying my wish. :twisted:

Hurrah, a fellow Glaswegian! Let me buy you a Buckfast! :P

Actually, I'm beginning to get a strange itch all over my body, as this is one subject that I get ridiculously and embarrassingly annoyed about. Can't... control it... much longer.... :evil:
The equinox is the middle of Autumn, dammit - I don't care what the cretins at the Met Office say. Longest day = middle of summer, not the beginning, shortest day = middle of winter, for f**k's sake! I mean, seriously, just 'cos it's warm, people. And only in f**king Bournemouth! At the beginning of June here, it only gets completely dark for about an hour or two, and that's not summer, apparently, according to 'The Man'. Yet last week it was summer, with me having to put the lights on about 7 o'clock. f**k off! Daffodils are coming out, pigeons are building their little nests in winter? Are you telling me pigeons are stupid? Well I was talking to a pigeon just the other day and he was taking the p*ss out of all the stupid people who go their summer holidays in September!

:urff: That feels so much better. Don't know what came over me there. :oops:

Stupidity is to go on holidays in August. It's more expensive, the weather is not so good, much more confusion... no way.
Holidays on September :notworthy: :notworthy: And tomorrow...here i go... to the beach. :twisted:

I agree August is stupid. I take my holidays in the first two weeks of July. 8)

May or June is my holiday time. After the football, before the rugrats are let out of school.

It also means southern Europe isn't too oppressively hot for my delicate North Sea constitution.

And who cares if it rains? I'm English, ffs! I'm used to rain.
