It's almost the weekend, and the weather forecast for much of the UK is indicating a mini heatwave for much of the country. Various weather warnings have been issued, including the possibility of flash floods. It will be a bit windy as well.
The British weather, it's just something we like to talk about.
Well, recently I have been making an effort to get up early and go for a morning walk. I'm an early bird anyway, but now it's around six in the morning that I am up by, an hour earlier than before. I'm trying to make it a habit, getting out early, some exercise, the world is just a very different place at that time. It's still mostly peaceful and quiet.
I've also noticed something else. It's cold. It's a brisk type of coldness that defies the fact that we are now in June, summer is here, at least according to the Met Office. The Meteorological summer, that is.

As I write this it is early afternoon, still windy, but the sun has now broken through. This morning I was out wearing a heavy coat, now it's t-shirt time. I had a theory that our four seasons in the UK had moved on by about a month, each one starting later.
There again it might just be that I'm getting older and that I just notice the cold more.
