With Global temperatures higher than ever before - I think it's time to get excited about this Summer!

As it's a miserable and dull day in the North I think it would be the right time of the year to get excited. Anyone got plans?

I should be going seeing Muse and staying in Scotland doing various things, holiday abroad isn't planned yet though. Wouldn't think we'd need one anymore!

Getting excited about global warming, lol...



Yay Muse, Wembley Statium or one of the festicals they're playing? I'm going to both nights in Wembley

Where in Scotland are you going?

I think we have something in common! Yep, I'm going on the Saturday night to see Muse at Wembley, also making a trip to London out of it too.. Should be fun.

Kinloch Rannoch is the village I might possibilly be working in.

I'm going to do what I never managed to do last summer... go spend some time in China

If it is as hot this summer as last then I am off to Alaska/Arctic to live in an igloo till Autumn. Give me snow and cold anytime over hot and unbearable sun.

I'm going on holiday to Tenerife again this year, can't wait, it's really going to be great.

We were talking about visting Europe this summer, but I'm starting to doubt this, as we'd probably be making some reservations already. Maybe we'll go to Canada again, like we did last year.

I went to Canada last year, it was great, Tim Hortons

I never went to Tim Horton's, because I never found one.

I'll be off to Malaysia in October... that's my only plans for this year... nothing in the summer.



Cool at muse and never heard of that place in Scotland, had a look on the map, looks isolated

I am gonna visit a couple states and party a lot .

How can you not find a Tim Horton's in Canada.

Haha, I was thinking the same thing There's on corner in Hamilton you can stand on and see 4 Timmy's from

Ontario was were I was staying There were loads! T'was great.

Timmy's is one thing that associates us as Canadians.... enjoy something from there. It's not extraordinary, but it's definitely part of our culture.

Well, I wasn't going out of my way to find one. I probably passed one or two w/o realizing it.

Your telling me you went to Canada without going to Timmys

With any luck I'll have found and be starting employment. While that may not sound like great summer plans to most, having spent the last 3 years living as a student the prospect of having a regular monthly income is REALLY exciting... I'll be able to afford things... like... you know, eating... little luxuries like that.

I have a small contract to write some software for some near field communications aware software :|

Were do people from Canada go on holiday? Cause I usally go to Canada to see my grandparents, do you guy's go to Spain/ Italy or what.

Don't worry, come this time next year when this topic comes up again you'll be thinking "I wish I was a student still"

What's different? I already work a 50 hour week at uni

Not during the summer you don't, which is what this topic is about

I hate summer, I'd rather be working

Yes, but you have no friends.

If you come to Vancouver, the situation is the same but with Starbucks. I swear if you head downtown or along the Broadway corridor, you have one starbucks per city block

P.S. I'll be heading to Europe in May as I'm taking the Summer Semester off. Anyone know if there are any O2 Mobile filling stations near or around Heathrow or Victoria Tube station?

I am going to Poland this summer, and hopefully Germany .

I'm from the US, and I often vacation to other portions of the US, such as the East Coast. I don't see why the situation up in Canada would be any different.

Stephen you tend to entertain me . As drygnfyre they probably visit other parts of the country as Canada is a big country. I would say some visit the USA or some travel the world like us Americans do as well.

I'd like to go somewhere, but the end of my university career draws closer every day. So, I'm going to try and get an internship over the summer, preferably a paid one if I can.
