I get happy when I see the sun I will put on my jacket and go out and soak it in. sometimes I will drive around in my truck until I find some sun and just sit there and soak it all in.

At this time of the year, I cherish every bit of sunshine I can get, I just wish there was more of it.

I live near Manchester in n.w England, we get lots of rain and not enough sunshine. I would love to live in the Canary Islands, well I can dream I suppose.

Not too far from Manchester and it's lashing down this morning. Sitting with my lamp, looking out onto the garden. Not really what you would call light yet!

The sun is going to be out tomorrow or atleast thats what the weather man says but they lie all the time and get away with it. I would love to be a weather woman it will be dark until morning and then light all day.

building our new extension has cleared out every bit of savings and put some on the mortgage too, but it's the best thing for me. When there is sunshine, as there was yesterday, I was able to sit in the warm in the full sunlight. It was wonderful. As I sit here now, I know I will have to scrape off the car... the sky is ominously pink and blue though!

The weather was cold but very bright today,We have nice big glass patio doors at the back of the house, its really nice when the sun shines, but not as good as an extension, you are very lucky purplelvy.
