Favourite thing about summer....

Rt hon NickyDyke85 · Lord of the Rings

girls wear less clothes

Jeni Jeni Jen Jen

Haha!

At the mo, I'm loving the social Lupton life. Sitting oustide in the sun, wearing my incredibly cool sunglasses, on my sexy Primark beach towel. Ahhhh.

barbeques! with wine! and good music, maybe a music festival, being able to read what you like without feeling guilty about not reading something else, going on holiday, poisoning pigeons in the park, the sun forces you not to wear black, people sometimes smile (even if it is just wind), going to Chiang Mai, receiving postcards from people, baking without feeling that is an act of rebellion or procrastination, going to Belgian jazz festivals, eating mangoes......

i love the summer!

indie_hunk · Guru of the Gay

I woke up today with the sun on my face. I think it's going to be a good day.

Rt hon NickyDyke85 · Lord of the Rings

makes cleaning seem much nicer.... sun shining, windows n doors open wi a nice breeze of air circulating & music on full volume singin along badly... am chilled (chilled out while cleaning... am scaring myself!)

Irish Dom · Forum Guru

More free time, and drinking sangria in the park - very nice. But what wins hands down for me it trendy boys in linen trousers and flip flops, with long messy hair - lol - they seem to come outta the woodwork during the summer - and they are just my thing. yeah.

Breconboy · Big Gay Al

Sunglasses. No doubt. They make everyone look at least three tenths sexier. Sad times that aviators don't suit me, though.

(I'm only posting this because it's my 100th post and I want to see if I get a new tag line)

Laura · Vodka! Books!

proughan · je suis perdu.

Being able to escape to the park and lean against a tree and people watch.

That or sat out in my local pub beer garden drinking a nice cold beer with friends.

chemicalfears · Queen of Quips

watching all the trashy little white girls boasting and flouncing about with their fake tans, when it´s blatantly obvious that san tropez orange reeeeeeaaalllllly doesn´t suit them...

p.s.( summer sucks if u have hayfever, a light sensitivity disorder, or just like the dark)

I'm with u on the darkness... that bluddy skylight in my room is a torture device, i've covered it in the blind (white blind wot r the landlords on?), pinned a black shirt over the top & finally as a further measure covered it all with a flag, yet my room is still as light as hell at 6am. Hating how its currently becoming day light at 4am. I think am gonna end up sleeping on the sofa 4 the whole of summer again cos its considerably darker than my room

chemicalfears · Queen of Quips

see, that´s what i loved about bedding down in your living room last year - it was like a cave, it was so dark (and easy access to the kitchen roof, hehe)

the smell of factor 50 sun lotion

Arsecandle · Admin Bitch

i usually goto Vancouver every summer...so that....but not this year D:

indie_hunk · Guru of the Gay

Why do sun lotions smell like crap? You just don't want ppl drenched in sun lotion to touch you until it dries out!

Mackie · Guru of the Gay

I think sun cream is ok ! its aftersun that really smells like poop! i can't put it on!!! i have to use gels!

The best thing about summer is you can stay up and it doesn'y get dark till really late! ! ! so the day lasts for like ever !!!!

Two words: water fights.

AliceH · Butter Me Up!

Does anyone else hate summer with a vengeance, or am I the only one?!

Spring and autumn are lovely, but once the temperature gets over 19 degrees, I melt.

Rt hon NickyDyke85 · Lord of the Rings

Depends how hot it is n wot am doing but generally am crap at coping wi heat

proughan · je suis perdu.

Used to be crap at dealing with the heat but then I started working in a building with a big glass roof and no airconditioning (local councils always seem to have wonderful ideas like this).

Well, I meant it as in "wow water fights, they are fun", not as in "wow water fights, wet girls".

Jess said that you're the bigger perv for thinking about the wet girls type of water fight, because my comment was completely innocent.

Nah you're not the only one, I can't stand hot weather - my skin thinks it's gone to Brazil, I sweat like crazy, I burn in minutes - horrible! I must be descended from Eskimos.

Gemma · Poster

I melt when its too hot, can't cope with heat like it is at the moment, but the blue skies and all the sunshine does make me go a bit giddy, like seasonal affective disorder in reverse.
Can I be cliched as well and point out the smell of cut grass, and creosote on fences (even tho it is evil stuff) and ice cream vans, .........

chemicalfears · Queen of Quips

the smell of cut grass is exctly what drivs me mad about summer...

...bring on hot, rainy winters, with no pollen!!! w00t!!!!

agreed! russia is gross, full of straw animels, floating fluff and dust - and anything else that makes me sneeze like a nob'ed

Polo fiend · Lord Gay Van Gay of Gayville

Sunny weather and blue skies make me really happy too; I think I've got SAD in reverse n all!

The smell of suntan lotion is really nice, it just smells of holidays. And hearing the ice cream van coming is ace! Water fights, in the innocent sense, are fun as well, haven't had any of them for years till recently.

Tho sitting outside talking for hours, with or without booze, is one of the best. And the fact you don't really have anything to do, so you don't feel as guilty doing nothing.

Hayfever sucks majorly though. It's been attacking me in spurts so far this year. And also, the lightness if you really really wanna sleep can be a bit annoying.

Rt hon NickyDyke85 · Lord of the Rings

With u on the lightness thing... evil stuff.

Sun tan lotion... i aint that keen on the smell of it. Mind u i think thats cos saggy old men in string vests covered in suntan lotion keep coming 2 the bar... its sickening

AliceH · Butter Me Up!

Mmm, creosote. It can't be good to inhale it, but it's one of the few tolerable things about summer.

Hooray for today's unseasonal coldness!
