les Rosbifs

Yay, the summer’s arrived, so they say but in England, it’s here for one day; we roast in the sun, go rare to well-done; spend the rest of the year in dismay.

Whoa. The rest of the year... That's starting to sink in... Such a forbidding climate in Britain, it seems to me.

In one Terry. I thought you may have a French connection at first due to the title of your limerick. (The nickname the French have been known to give us Brits) TBH we Brits tend to moan when it's cold and moan when it's hot LOL! ..I've just read by the way that we are heading for a few days of 80 degrees F.....I sense a water hose ban. :) Cheers - Gary
