The second episode of the second season of Black Books sees anti-social, hate-everything book owner Bernard change his ways and go about his days feeling happy and trying to impress a girl, a summer girl. It's a great episode.

I've got to get a girlfriend, just for the summer, until this wears off. She'll be a summery girl. She'll have hair. She'll have summery friends who know how to be outside. She'll play tennis and wear dresses and have bare feet, and in the autumn, I'll ditch her, because she's my summer girl!

I don't own a bookshop and there's certainly no girl (you're kidding right- me & other people?), on second thoughts, it's maybe even a bad reference, but despite what I said earlier, I am thoroughly enjoying summer. Can't this season -and happiness?- last just a little longer before leaving entirely? Either that or I want another two weeks of work holiday...
