At last summer is here lets just hope we have a really hot one.
The weather people say the hot weather is here to stay right up to September (if you believe that you believe anything).
When i was young we used to have some cracking summers in the 70s and 80s, they used to last about 6 months with very little rain and it was very hot.
I had some great summers when I was young,my family and I use to go camping alot.
I remember one summer in the late 70s I went to butlins with my mum,dad and two brothers, it was the best summer I ever had. I also used to hang around with friends alot, I used to love the school summer holidays it was always guaranteed to be a hot one.
You don't get summers like that anymore it stays hot for about a week and then it gets colder with lots of rain, take two years ago it rained every single day in June and most of July.
It would be great if we had a good long hot summer this year, I think we need it.
Now im alot older and the summers I think are getting shorter we have to enjoy the hot weather while we can because we don't get many.
If we get a good summer this year (here's hoping) might go camping down south with my wife and son who is 7 and loves camping just like I did when Iwas young. We will be going out for days at the beach because can't afford to go abroad this year but there again you can have a good holiday in this country if the weather is hot and dry...

ah the rose tinted glasses through which we view the summers of youth. in fact the statistics suggest they were no different from what we experience now, but the memories will keep you warm. hope it stays dry for the camping!
