Our local paper today carries the news that July is the grumpiest month for Britons as they battle with sleep deprivation and fraying tempers in the heat. A recent survey has indicated that 88% of those asked revealed that they lost sleep every night, with two hours being the average amount lost!
Now as a B&B owner I hope I never ever come across as grumpy. However, I have to admit, the short summer nights do induce a lack of sleep on my part. I am regularly wide awake at 5am in the morning and this does on the rare occasion result in 'tensions' between myself and Fiona. But, we keep it behing closed doors and look forward patiently for the long winter nights again when we blissfully sleep for 9 hours. No I think not!
So lets just face it we are never happy with the weather - just smile and get over it!
