If you are like me then sometimes the winters seem really long and bleak and dreary. The thing with our winters here is that they are so…well…grey.
It is not often that we get the sunshine and blue skies with the low temperatures that frequent the alpine regions in Europe. Which is a real shame…
We get lots of long, grey d-r-i-z-z-l-e. I know that folk love the cuddling up under the blankets and watching a movie..but really there is only so long that, that is attractive and actually the longing for the sun..the warmth..gets to be a somewhat of a yearning.
Sometimes you only realise how much you need it when you feel the sun on your face, like your very soul is waking up and you suddenly feel like crying with relief. The light is coming back…its not so dark, not so cold and there is less of the huge struggle to get everyone dressed like a eskimo to actually step outside the door. I miss the sun. I love the sun.
I love snow, really i do….but i love it when combined with blue sky mountain days, ski lifts, big warm jacuzzis for apres ski and the sun. I love it with the sun. Which i guess is only possible when you are high up in the mountains. Here it is slush and the school run. Absolutely no fun!
So that light at the end of the tunnel. I think this week it got a bit closer 🙂
My giveaway this week is from one of my favourite shops..the shop you can smell from down the street! A gift box from the fabulous Lush handmade cosmetics. A little bit of sunshine in a box. Simple to enter just follow the rafflecopters!
Check back next week for the results.
Last weeks winner was Hannah Deane! Congratulations.

Great giveaway 🙂

I like July because it’s both my boys birthdays.

My favourite time of the year is Summer as it has longer, sunnier, drier days.
Spring, not too hot and not too cold 🙂
Autumn, when all the leaves turn a lovely rusty colour 🙂 I find it really calming
I Love The Winter. The cold breeze. Knowing that you have to wrap up warm to go outside. Which means snuggly hats, cosy gloves and coats. And Big fluffy ear muffs! Oh yes I have a white pair, they are fantastic for keeping my ears warm!
I love summer – everyone seems happier and I love wearing sunglasses 🙂

Summertime… especially on the build up to the holidays when everyone gets really annoyed as I do the weeks/ days countdown ;).
i love the winter- you can get cosy jumpers and it makes you more excited about getting back home after work because its sooo cold!
Winter – I love it when the clocks change & the darkness comes sooner.
Spring
I love summer, I hate feeling cold, and I just feel genuinely happier when the sun shines 🙂
summer just makes me happy!
July – my birthday
I love spring – the end of long dark days and the promise of long, and hopefully, sunny ones.
I love the colours of the spring, but I must admit, I’m at my best in the height of summer. I love the long, warm days and having my children at home during the school holidays.
I love Autumn – crisp mornings and sunny days!
Summer
Spring definately. A chance to start afresh and with expectations of a long, hot summer and plenty of family time – even though neither ever arrive!

I like Spring the best, especially when the sun is shining. I like to see daffodils and crocii blooming on the roadside.

my favourite colour is winter
i like summer best, although i do love it when it snows. everything looks so pretty
Definitely summer around the end of July when the temperature is above 20 degrees Celsius and the days are so long that it is still bright outside at 8pm. The kids and children have finished all their exams and can be free of pressure and we can all get together and have some quality family time for 6 weeks. Every can get into their pretty summer clothes. Heating can go off and since we spend more time outside so can the TV and electrical equipment so my bills are not flying up the roof. The trees are green and generally for London, everything does seem more colourful and not just grey and black.
summer time – the weather & longer days 🙂
I like Spring as it resembles new life and the start of everything 🙂 x.
Summer
Winter, nothing like being curled up in bed listening to a storm.

Autumn – the sound of crunchy leaves under my childrens’ wellies, the smell of coal fires wafting in my street and the excitement of the months ahead – Halloween, Bonfire Night, Christmas 🙂
Summer as I can go and swim in the sea in the evenings
Summer, always.
Pub gardens, parks, long walks with a lolly and evenings in the garden.

I love the run up to Christmas – atmospheric, twinkly and everyone seems that little bit nicer to everyone else.
summer – well if it’s sunny and hot anyway!
Summer
Impossible question, as I like and hate bits of each season. I love winter, as I can cover up and It includes Christmas, but I love the summer as I can go for walks and get fresh air, and that includes my birthday!
I love summer….when we get one!
June, because it is my birthday, my parents anniversry, my brothers birthday, my aunties birthday, my brothers birthday, my little cousins birthday, she was born on my 18th birthday, aswell as fathers day, so June is a busy celebratory month for me. =D
Probably Summer because as a teacher it means the hard work of preparing students for exams is done and I can enjoy a well earned holiday while waiting for their results before the rollercoaster starts again in September!
I like the summer, the sun mkes me feel good.
I love winter especially when it snows. Nothing beats sitting in front of a roaring fire whilst watching the snow fall outside.

Spring, I’m always itching to get out on the allotment, sort my seeds and get going 🙂
It seems to me that the seasons are all quite similar as I don’t feel we have had a ‘proper’ summer for ages. I do love being able to have days at the park with the kids though so I would say spring/summer.
Summer – I love the freedom of sandals or bare feet and no coats!
Spring! Bounce bounce!
I know that might sound really sad but I love Winter, love the dark nights, the cosy fires, and Christmas.
Officially my favourite season is winter – I love the cold, the festivals, the hot stodgy food, and nothing beats a long long stomp in cold bright sunshine. But I think I’m always a bit romantic about it and its rarely lovely cold bright sunshine here! I always find whatever the season I’m in I’m ready for it to end and the next one to begin when the time comes – each one has so much to offer and nature seems to have figured out just how long to make each season before I go a bit mad! 🙂
I love winter especially when it snows.

Christmas
I like summer..or I would if we ever had one.
I think there is something to be said for each of the seasons. My favourite is Autumn because I love the colours of the falling leaves and when it’s just starting to turn cool enough for snuggly clothes & warm soup (but not so cold that your fingers freeze!).
I’m definitely longing for some sunshine now though! I love Lush, our local store closed down but when ever I’m near a store I have to go inside & see what goodies they have. The smell just entices me in! 🙂
Got to be spring and seeing the lambs in the field.

I love spring time
I love the summer, with the longer warmer days we spend lots of time outside as a family whether its tending to the garden or playing in the paddling pool or on the trampoline. We also visit lots of parks, moorland and the beach, all of which we are lucky enough to have on our doorsteps.
Best of all the fact you can go out without a coat and feel the fresh air on your skin without feeling cold.
We eat lots of our meals out in the garden, whether it be a BBQ or even just a salad, and the ice cream van seems to be visiting our street on most days which is very welcome in the warmer months.
It has to be summer with the nice weather and long evenings.
summer i love the warmth
