The Good, The Bad & The Ugly of Summer

Summer has started, the heat and the blinding light warms our cockles. *sigh* Isn’t it wonderful.

The birds are singing and all the beer gardens are full to the brim. The buildings and alleys start to get a new lease on life. Let’s just say most things look better in the sun. I will say most but not all. Here are good, bad and ugly parts to the summer sun.

 

The Good

 

Sun whimsies are the best sort. I mean you wouldn’t be able to do this in the winter. For one, no-one will be on the beach to see it and for two, no-one wants to get that much skin out in the British winter weather. This is one good thing to do when in the sun.

Ah the beer gardens, where masses of sweating bodies come together to consume vast amounts of alcohol and telling the whole world they are in love with someone they met maybe three hours ago. Where teens try to push their luck and obtain a sneaky apple sour or a pint of the pub’s best larger.

Heaven.

 

 

The Bad

 

 

This is the worst thing about summer. BEING BITTEN. Gah, this is no fun whatsoever.

We all want to get our legs and arms out in the summer sun and then boom, this shit happens. One moment you are frolicking in the lush green grass and then you are holed up in a dark room scratching all your bites trying to hide the truth from the people you love.

So in short there are some amazing things about summer. It is probably best to avoid beer gardens and places where little flying insect lay in wait to nibble your desirables.

 

 

The Ugly

 

I mean it is all well and good getting your skin out to feel the freedom and enjoyment of the warm rays. Just honestly ain’t nobody got time for sunburn. Not even a little bit. This is just one ugly side to summer. As soon as there is wiff of sun everyone starts to get naked.

It is unfortunate for those who wear clothes and forget the all important sun cream. Apart from looking terrible, it is sore as hell when you get sunburnt. Do not expect to be able to sleep well for the next couple of weeks and then after that is THE PEELING.

I have to say I don’t have the body of a goddess and out of respect for others try to cover up even a modest amount.
