Spring Forward!

Today has been a beautiful,sunny and warm day in London, seriously it's been the kind of day that makes you smile!

The blossoms are out on all my trees and it's truly beautiful!

But tonight the clocks go forward, the start of British summertime and one hours less sleep for me!

Ok I know there are advantages to the clocks going forward but seriously losing a hours sleep or waking up what is essentially an hour later, really puts a big dent in my day! I don't have enough hours in the day as it is so to feel like I'm losing one does not make me a happy bunny!

But it's supposed to be nice again tomorrow so maybe I will smile, be happy, do some gardening and enjoy my day!

How do you feel about the clocks changing?

We're having a heatwave!

Well not so much of a heatwave as one hot day! The hottest day of the year so far to be precise! And what do we Brits do, we complain! "ooh it's too hot" it's one day! There are places all over the world that consistently have high temperatures And I mean really high in Libya they have reached 56 before now , Australia have temps recorded in the 40's, As has Texas yet we here reach 32 and everyone goes on like it's the end of the world all this after complaining just last week that it was too wet, windy and cold!

Me personally I love it , I embrace it, I know it won't last long so I fill the paddling pool for the little one (and me!), I stock up on ice lollies and lovely chilled wine and I enjoy!

I strip off to a bikini( not a pretty sight, I know it's wrong to scare small children and animals ) slather on the sun block and sit in my garden and enjoy!

So tomorrow when it's raining and you're complaining about that, think about how much fun you could have had if you'd stopped complaining and just enjoyed yourself!
