Summer Time?

Tweet

Well, it's officially British Summer Time. The clocks went forward one hour during the night, so here we are... lighter evenings, longer days, shorter nights. A time for evening wanders across the fields and through the woods, to the millponds where I spend many a reflective hour, then have a beer in the pub, on the way back. Sometimes, I'll go and sit on a bench under an Oak Tree in the churchyard. I like to sit outside the west entrance to the church sometimes, as the church is on a hill and you get a brilliant view of the sunset in the West, with a silhouette of trees, as the red orb sinks behind them. Hot air balloons will be adorning the sky, normally three or four at a time, at different heights... wonderful. On lazy days, I will rise in the morning, take a bath and breakfast, then grab my current book and head off into the garden, to lie on my sun lounger, shaded by a parasol, reading my book. That's my way of relaxing, with only the sound of the birds and sheep, and distant squeals of childhood delight, occasionally. I'm quite looking forward to all this but the weather needs to warm a little first. It seems milder today and the sun is shining brightly, so we shouldn't have long to wait. Dreaming again... how about you, are you looking forward to Summer and what will you do during those warm, sultry months?
