There is a bloody great big bee in my bedroom, a huge jasper.

Where did that git come from? Anyone?

Anyway, my question to you all is, does 1 bee make a summer?

i reckon it probably came in from outside.

It was colder yesterday than it was in the winter yes?

Today is better though. I am feeling a bit more optimistic about the weather now.

 Nah, no more than one swallow.  However, I did see a decent amount of willow warblers in Savernake the other day, always a good harbinger of spring.

Meh.

I have seen a flying cockroach make many a grown man run for cover. Yours truly included  :oops: .

And yeah BIG ARSE cockroaches do fly.

It is difficult to determine between seasons out here, asides from when it rains constantly for 3 months solid. Well that is the "Wet" season. Asides from that it is just constantly hot really.

Must get boring with it being 30c+ every day?

I look forward to it getting into double figures here.

I am claiming today as the start of the British summer, and confidently predict that we will be able to wear shorts and flip flops to the Millwall game.

And if Andy King is scouting Miguel again at that game, then I am sure he will treat us to his flip flops + white sock combo ala Wednesday at home a few seasons ago.

Not really.

At the moment the heat and humidity is horrible, although during the "Cool" season it is about 30-ish but with less humidity, quite pleasant especially in the evenings.

We are approaching the big fuck-off thunderstorm time of year, the type where the thunder literally rattles the window frames, I love that shite. The lightning storms out here can actually get a little scary at times, it's ace.

3 months of rain can be a bit of a drag though, especially when the klongs (Highly polluted cannals) break their banks.......... SMELLY.

I thought a jasper was a wasp ?

It is.

I ran over a squirrel this morning I am mortified :(

Grey or Red ?  (I realise it wold have been red afterwards)

Would that be a (Basil) Brush with death ?

It was grey boom boom

we have a pet squirrel at work - It lives in the tree by the pool side window and comes up to see us - we called it scrat

I normally think squirrels are rats with nicer tails but I like this one - its more like a kitten

When I was at halls there were quite often large rats that roamed from their dwellings and scuttled across the paths/roads. It was quite disgusting and something we often compained about.

One day I was stood outside in the porch area having my morning ciggie when out of the corner of my eye I spied something grey running towards me. Thinking it was a rat I jumped out of my skin and prepared to boot the fucker as far away as I could. Upon turnng round I found out it was actually one of the squirrels, which promptly stopped a few feet from me and just stared at me for a minute before scuttling off. I think it wanted to go threes on my fag.

So I can conclude the squirrels are definitely not as bad as rats.

I didnt know you smoked?  :o

I trod on a rat when I was running in Bath a few months back. I just saw a flash of something coming out of the undergrowth, felt my right foot land strangely like I'd trod on something big, heard a loud squeek and something splashed into the canal.

I think it survived. I barely did.

Oi, rats are cool.

I had a pet rat once, he used to come to the pub with me and sit in my pocket all night. Sticking his head out hoping to be fed crisps and stuff.

He was ace.

Rats are shit.

I think today was officialy the first day of summer. Well lush weather!

It was actually a wasp in my room.

Sorry for the confusion.

Shorts and t-shirt today and, incredibly, I've got sun-burn. It is definitely summer. 8)

 Without wishing to piss on your dreams Dave....this season is called spring.

  Here have a bit of Viv.....sums it up exactly.

haha, theres always a few weeks in april/may that are dead sunny and hot. Thats what i meant.

I didn't even wear my coat at the match tonight and wasn't cold. It must be summer.

i hope its nice and sunny again tomorow, it's our varsity day... i'm gonna drink 20 strongbows in the sun and watch our boys do the bizz.

I'm off work to go out and celebrate St George's Day.

Axs - just wanted to make sure my new avatar was next to yours :D

the fB Gallery Collection  :D

you seem to be going at it a bit more vigorously than me!

Although my recipient is definately having a better time  :D

 :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: It's just the motion of the ocean!  I think fB's has a little more style than mine although I did pinch the caravan as a base image.

I want a dirty avatar!

haha, i thought he'd done it for you!

Hahaha. THat's fucking ace.

It still felt cold even in the sun yesterday and it was about 5 degrees in the morning. You must have very low expectations of summer.

I'm going to have to spend more time smoothing out the edges to get it up to fB standard.  

JFW - if you want a similar dirty avatar you'll have to reveal an interesting mode of transportable accomodation you've done it in :D

Can you do one of a tuk-tuk?

I cant think of anything? oh Im the virgin Mary by the way  :wink:

I know one thing JFW... the 118 118 thing?

ha ha ha - well reminded!! ha ha!

Does a Ford StreetKa count as interesting mode of transportable accomodation though?

That story turned me on no end!

what the 118 118 bit?  :wink:

have you gone out and brought a costume yet?

If it gets that response, then i'll have one on order in no time  :oops:

Here's a Tuk-Tuk.

Way too risky considering that there will be a very high risk of being knicked.

But if anyone could do me a cool sex in a Tuk-Tuk then I will give them lots and lots of thanks.

Depends if you're a StreetworKa

Today I had to cut the grass for the first time this year. Boo.

So my jasper really did signal the start of summer yes?

  No, middle of spring.
