Well it seems to have happened (again), the summer passed us by without letting us know it was here; the chill is in the air again and do you know what, I think i've started to look forwards to winters more than I do the summer! Bring on the central heating, beef and ale casseroles and nights with your feets pointed to the fire with a nice strong warming beer!

Which do you prefer ?
 
I work outside so the winter doesn't offer me much in the way of, well anything but hardship :( I'm a summer man even if they are wet at least they're warm ;)
 
I much prefer a cold winter to a hot summer, especially when it comes to the big outdoors as i can add clothes to keep me warm. there's only so many clothes i can take off without being arrested in the summer and i hate the british "muggy" heat.

although winters are starting to get **** too with mostly wind and rain. I remember the days when there'd be snow on the ground nearly every xmas holiday, now it's starting to snow in ridiculous months like february!!

I agree, did the same for many years but age drove me to see sense.

The main thing I like about winter is the big f*** Off woodburner we got a few years ago.

Fire it up to near melting point with free wood, beer about 25p a pint, :drink: book or telly or whatever suits.

Can't wait.

My work is fairly seasonal and it slacks off in the winter, which is nice as I can get on and brew during the week. That said, I'm a fan of golden ales and, they just taste so much better when the sun is shining so I'd have to say the summer (or spring in particular) is my fave. A pint of Townes IPA with the sun on your back, mmmmm :thumb:
