Paid Members Carbomb Posted July 20, 2021 Paid Members Posted July 20, 2021 I love the sun. Sure, it can get a bit too oppressive at times, and if the humidity and pollution gets too much, it can feel like you're permanently standing behind a bus (credit: @PunkStep), but for the most part, the sunshine, the brightness, the warmth, the extra vitamin D, and yes - the women in summer gear (and I don't just mean skimpy, I mean swooshy skirts too) make it all worthwhile to me. And bear in mind I'm one of those who has to worry about the old dome frying, so have to either wear a hat or slather my bonce in high-factor whenever I go out. One of the best things about hot weather is having a massive pint of cold beer or cider in a frosted glass. At the moment, my beer of choice is Fuller's Honey Dew, although this has also become a faovurite: But this is the All-Purpose Praise thread, so when we get torrents of shitty rain and banks of fog, feel free to wax lyrical.

On the actual subject of the thread, from my back garden I can smell a neighbour having a barbecue, which is the one positive so far of these otherwise sweltering conditions. Quote
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted July 21, 2021 Moderators Posted July 21, 2021 Having two separate threads about the same topic, split by whether the comment is positive or negative is quite frankly idiotic. Quote
King Coconut Posted July 21, 2021 Posted July 21, 2021 (edited) I'm off to a barbecue right now. Those weather-moaning fannies are obviously slack-jawed. Edit - Look out, the fannies are already trying to shut us down. Edited July 21, 2021 by King Coconut Quote

wordsfromlee Posted July 21, 2021 Posted July 21, 2021 Just popping my head in to see the lay of the land. I'll be back in here towards the end of September. Quote

Joe Blog Posted July 21, 2021 Posted July 21, 2021 This is a great thread. The sun is amazing and offers endless possibilities. Let those pale, sweaty, deformed (probably) rain lovers stay in their shitty thread forever more. This be sun country. Quote
