I Want This!



We have had a lot of rain in Cornwall.



Too much for me.



I want summer back please.



Bright colours



sparkling seas



The locals!



Fun with the kids



Trolling through rock pools looking for sealife



Picnic lunches full of sand



Blue, blue skies with only the occasional fluffy cloud scudding by



And then home for tea.



Just thought I'd say. x

    So sorry you are not able to enjoy all that just now - we on the other hand have had no rain since last week's downpour. Life's not fair is it?!!

    We, on the other hand, need rain although at night would be good!

    I agree wholeheartedly! The weather is dreadful today - really wintery...I hope this isn't going to continue into the summer holidays or it'll be a very long six weeks!

    Haha! You have sea children, too. I just got back from seeing my son who now lives on the Gulf. We do the same sorts of things you do at the beach. I have a couple of pictures of my sea children on my blog.

    Oh my goodness yes, Id want all that back too if I had it on my doorstep!
    We have also had lots of rain of late, summer has descended into a bit of a soggy mess, random downpours and the like. Lets hope it clears up soon and the gorgeous weather returns!

    Much love

    Hi Pipany,

    Hope summer will be back for you soon! The photo's of the beach and the sea look very inviting. It is very hot and humid in Holland at the moment. We would all love to take a plunge!

    Lieve groet, Madelief

    Hi Pip, just had a text from a friend down in Cornwall who is very wet waiting for the Boddinick ferry and they are camping too. We were due to go down on Friday but have put it off to later in the hols and I am very pleased we have if its raining. I could tell you how lovely and warm and dry it is here in Sussex but I wouldn't want to rub it in! Karen X

    We are in Cheshire ans have had rain every day for the last 2 weeks. We'd like some lovely Cornish sunshine too, when we head down for our summer holiday in a weeks time!

    Pipany, our NYC July has been aggressively hot. Not much rain, the promised thunderstorms just seem to pass us by.

    Last year's summer was much more gentle.

    I am keeping my hoped up for a kind August.

    love to you, Katy xo

    Do hope summer returns to your pretty corner of the world, Pipany! I just LOVE this parade of photos of summer life at its sweetest...*sigh*... Here in southern Norway we've been having overcast days of late. Last weekend we were blessed with lot of sun and took a long weekend at the coast...BLISS! May the bliss be back for you! :o) ((HUGS))

    I directed my daughter to your blog as an encouragement to make her own clothes. I showed her the photos of your daughter in the skirt you recently posted. You're an inspiration!

    I agree Pip, just as the kids broke up the weather took a turn for the worse in North Devon. Today is looking good though and I am to venture down to Cornwall so I am hoping for lots of sun for you today x
