A letter addressing our British Summer
Dear Weather,
Earlier this year we were told to prepare for a drought. Drought? Could have fooled me, I spent most of May and June swimming to work. You may have given us the odd day of sunshine and blue skies, but you peaked too early, you’ve been a wet and windy downpour of depression. There have been floods, strong winds; I think we even had a spell of hail at one point. Is it too much to ask that we not spend the entire summer crawling through mud?
Admittedly, crawling through mud can actually be quite fun if you’re going to a festival (what’s a British festival without mud?) but high winds and rainstorms for the entire summer is completely unfair and completely unnecessary. Weather, can you please just give those rain clouds of yours a vacation and lets us British girls have a week or two of sunshine? We have denim shorts that need to be shown off, strapless jumpsuits we need to parade around in, not to mention several oversized sun hats that clearly need to be worn in the sun (unless you want to make us look stupid, Weather). How are we supposed to wear a beautiful summer dress if it’s going to end up over our heads - no thanks to your ridiculous wind.
Speaking of wind, don’t get me started on how those horrendous gusts of yours have affected my hair – straight, curly, tied up, left down, quiffed, plaited - no matter how I style my hair, your wind manages to ruin it. Everyday has become a ‘Diana Ross Hairday’ and everyone knows only Diana herself can pull that look off. I can’t even apply my faithful fake tan and achieve a pretend sun-kissed look for fear I’ll step outside the door and the monsoon rain will wash it off.
And do I have to remind you what this is doing to our social lives? Killing them. We want to party at BBQ’s and drink on our British Beaches, not sit indoors watching endless repeats of ‘Come Dine Me’ (…. just me?). Weather, do you not understand that there are single girls out there who need to mingle in Beer Gardens? It’s imperative that the weather brightens up so that these hot Ladies can slip into their maxi dresses, put on their brand new sunglasses and venture out into Sun to have a good old flirt.
Why can’t you just give us the summer we deserve? Instead you let us make fools of ourselves. I want to be the girl that’s trots off to the Park to meet her boyfriend in a cute floaty dress, with a glowing tan, and flowing locks. NOT the girl who has to run for the bus with big frizzy hair, streaky legs and flashing my arse to the world as the wind blows up my skirt, all because you can’t be bothered to shine.
Weather – Sort it out.
Kind Regards,
The girl who can’t afford a Holiday
