No you don't!

No one would want to be here for our Irish summer so far this year.
It's raining and temperatures are barely in double figures.
Walking the dog this evening, I donned waterproof trousers, boots, heavy jacket and gloves.

We're having a rainy and cool start to summer here, too. I sympathize.

Excellent still life though. Love the monochrome and the textures of the glove and embroidery.

Same in Birmingham. V.

Oh my, We had quite a few days of rain last fall when we were in Ireland, but it didn't require a heavy jacket, just rainproof! I hope it will turn sunny for you soon!

Almost the same weather here in Brittany for one week. Well I will stay home and will listen to Pink Floyd "Wish you were here..." :)

You're matching our temperatures down south in Oz and
its officially winter here!

I'm being cruel in saying tomorrow is to be 26c while today was 24:) It will turn for you soon surely.
I like your composition.

Oh my. It sounds like weather all over the world is strange lately. This Spring/early Summer, it's been raining here almost everyday with our general area seeing a lot of flooding. The tempts tonight are suppose to drop into the single digits Celsius; which is also very odd. Hope your weather improves for you. Having to wear waterproof gear and gloves doesn't sound like Summer fun anywhere.

I like how you did this very eye catching photo.

your weather sounds discouraging...such patterns often occur here too, yet oddly recent times have brought lots of sunshine and warmth..

Good thing we weren't planning to go to Ireland this "summer"!

No, I don't think anyone would want your spring! We've had some cold days recently (glove weather), but I think we're pulling out of that now. I hope you too get a break in the weather.
