Summer. Not seen for about three years. Occasional fleeting glimpses, but nothing that could be definitely called summer. More a grey, grim, pseudo autumn that's possibly the most miserable weather on earth.

Not sure where you live (can't be bothered to check your profile) but it's been pretty warm around Bristol for a fair while now and shows no signs of letting up.

^^^I'm a believer Shaggy.

When i was young (imagine a pube on legs) Picked up a mussel shell and inside was a pearl attached. My Nan had it checked out by a Biology geezer, he confirmed. I've since misplaced it and hope it's with those dirty photos i took in the 80s. Shhh!

One of the main reasons I sold my last Blade. This shithouse country sucks on so many levels, even nature is against it.

The URL for that image is:

I wonder if that could possibly be from January 2010?!

Plus it's blatantly photoshopped.

Who makes a thread with a fake weather report?!

I'm in Yorkshire. The image was found from a Google search of "shit weather". If it's been 'shopped, it wasn't me. It's been shit here for ages. I was cold today. The missus is still suffering with a shitty cold that she picked up in the aftermath of the Oulton Park monsoon. I need a holiday! Mr. Green

I'm just missing sunshine. It's warm, but I'm not bothered about that, it's just clear skies and sunshine I'm after. I'll be chuffed if it's nice this weekend...

I thought last summer was really good for 'heat'.
The few times I had rain on a weekend, I was off doing an enduro where it was nice to have a bit of cooling action going on.
Hardly got wet on the commute at all.

This year hasn't been as good, but then in t'norf, and it's grim up here!

Get on with it.
When we've had the occasional long spell of sunshine i've ended up doing stuff when i should've been riding. With this year being intermittent kinda weather i've grabbed the opportunity for a long ride.
Tonight i arrived fashionably late at a mates birthday BBQ.

most of Scotland had 20 - 25 deg today
remember even when the "Uk" gets a good summer its normally pishing down up here
were grateful for any little bit of sunshine we get and make the most of it
got pretty burned over the last few days hopefully we will get some more sun to top up my tan

Looks like the weather Gods heard my pleas and have granted me with a beautiful day. Shame I have to go to work this afternoon, but there's a chance I can get leave, I've got to ring in in a bit. I might just have to go sit on my patio for an hour with coffee and the MCN. Smile is now on face.
