WOT SUMMER? by Pam Davies © This summer is taking the mickey! Pretending to be what it's not! It's terribly flooded and rainy and cold and it's s'posed to be terribly 'ot! I ventured out in me sandals, that was a massive mistake. Followed by snickers, I should have worn flippers, knowing the road is a lake. Normally slugs are a problem, eating me lettuce and such, This year a trout, in the flood took 'em out. What do I think of that? Well not much! "Buy lots of cactus!" they told us. "Plants that will not need a drink!" They're quite a sight, in the miserable light. Quite a spectacle watching 'em sink! I like to go to the seaside, when there's a sun in the sky. Now I've a spot, in the vegetable plot, very similar now the tide's high! I bought a lovely bikini, with pretty lace on the cup, I won't be wearing it but I'll be sharing it, helping the neighbours mop up! I'm thinking now, roll on winter, let's 'ave some weather that's fine. Christmas was warmer, a tree in the corner and plenty of cake and mulled wine! But maybe this warming the planet, is not such a terrible thing, All of this will be solved, when in time we've evolved and we're born with two gills and a fin!
