I want some nice weather, not all this horrible hot stuff

I want snow, lots of snow, I want icicles dangling from the eaves, I want to be so cold at night the air rings like the after note of a bell, I want to see the stars in all their glory, I want to have blankets on my bed, lots of them, even if it's cold enough a duvet. I want to wear jumpers and thick socks, I want warming winter soups and stews. I want the energy thats so intense I have to run up and down stairs a few times to get rid of some, I want the deep sleep that comes with not being overheated.

I know for may of you this will be anathema, but I can't cope with all this hot, the letheragy, the sleeplessness, the sweating, wondering if Fearn will overheat when we go out for a walk, the smell of BBQ's that make me feel sick.

I miss the sound of wind and rain, not storms but normal wind and rain.

  • Snowed In - half-past December - one year, not long ago.

  • Yep that proper snow, theres usually more snow on the mainland and at the other end of the island than here, the first winter I was here we were snowed in for about 3 weeks, I almost ran out of chocolate!!!

    I find windows open means I hear more of my neighbours than I'd like and smell them too with thier stinking BBQ's, I'm a bit of a fresh air freak and like the windows open during the day, but it can be unbearable from the noise, the smells and traffic. Why do so many people have speakers in thier car that broadcast their phone calls to the street, I mean I can hear both sides of the conversation!.

    I think I just suffering from the unrelenting sunshine the last few days, Cloudy weather is much more restful for my eyes.
