Hereabouts

The cats are sunbathing on the concrete

So Ive decided to take down the summer clothes. I hope I've not jinxed it

How do you know it's Summer? Is it by the calendar? When the swallows come? Or something else

The sound of lawnmowers in the distance and the smell of cut grass.

The first bees and butterflies are some of my favourite signs of summer coming.

My eyes have started itching

There's a bluebottle in the kitchen

People are planning barbecues in the rain

When you search through the wardrobe for a lighter jacket as the winter coat makes you too sweaty but it’s still raining out.

Breaking out the antihistamines is a sure sign that summer is on the way.
