The summer of 1976


Recommended Posts

 

I remember a group of us spending a night in Millhouses park in the school holidays of 1976, part of it in the lido .... I was a very mischievous 15 year old back then ... happy days indeed :D

Happy days mel, we used to bathe with kids from Dore and Totley.

and was held in place by atmospheric conditions,we sweltered at work and the novelty soon wore off, in the end we were all glad when it started raining.

Apart from 2006 cant remember a summer any thing like it.

 

1995 saw a drought in Yorkshire with some reservoirs running dry. Temperatures were up to 20C in early May and stayed that way for months. Mark Thomas did a ****-take on telly about Ethiopia donating water to us.

I also remember in that year I bought one of the first plastic mountin bikes, the first time I went out for a ride on it I was thinking what a lovely day it was until I felt I was slowly sinking, as I looked down my bike was slowly melting in the 21c sun and to top it off littlewoods would not give me a refund!
