On the annoyance that summer can be: Don't get me wrong, I love summer. But you'd think that with all this hot weather around it would at least have the decency to rain a lot. Not necessarily where I am, mind you, but where I want to go for a swim. Lying in a rockpool with a beer is far less enjoyable when it's only 25cm deep and you have to share it with a large amount of slime and at least 1 bunyip... oh wait, that was just someone draped in slime. Still, a small rockpool is better than no rockpool at all.
On drinking: When I drink, for some reason I lose all sloquence and normal co-ordination, but my sporting co-ordination doesn't change. As evidenced by me taking a lot of beer before I could beat a near-sober person at ping pong. This leads me to my long-held belief that drinking should be conducted near either a) a reliable source of coolness, b) in the presence of slightly silly games, or c) all of the above. c) is obviously the most preferable of the options available.
