The Downside of Summer Weather

You think you might spend a bit of time outside in the fresh air relaxing or, if working, open the windows and some selfish git makes a racket with a chainsaw/strimmer/lawnmower/cement mixer/ hammer etc delete as appropiate!

I am not a violent man but I am on the verge of walking down the road from my office and placing the chainsaw which has been making a racket for at least 6 hours where the sun definitely does not shine!

Am I an unreasonable miserable old git or have I touched a chord others might empathise with?

    As a student, there is nothing more annoying than hot weather while studying. Its impossible to concentrate when you are constantly sweaty and sticky.

    Bit out of order on a Sunday morning, I reckon on starting anything like that after 10am, I would have had a word.

    The worst thing about summer weather is all the people that seem genetically pre-disposed to whinge and whine about it. Four days of reasonably decent weather in 12 months and all of a sudden, "click", the whining gene kicks in. Why don't they bugger off the Norway or Newfoundland, they'd be well happy there.

    We only walked 8 miles on Thames Path yesterday as it was too hot. Then ended up being sick with heat exhaustion

    If you lived in a country where it was this hot all the time, you'd be sectioned for trying to walk 8 miles.

    This time last year on a gorgeous sunny afternoon, we went to our deserted beach at the Mull of Kintyre, only to find the peace shattered by two jet-skiers...

    Next day the local farmer apparently had a quiet word and reminded them about his shotgun.

    Haven't seen them since...

    As soon as the Sun comes out so do those dreaded Jaspers (Wasps) cannot stand them, they make me nervous & I am scared sh*tless of them.
