May meant freedom, independence, the beginning of summer and the dream of doing whatever I wanted. By June, finally, after months of darkness and reversals of temperature, one can dare to live in hope that this country is not the land of perpetual gloom, ugliness and fear. By the middle of the month, one might have had five days of meaningfully warm and clear weather, and stepped out without any socks on.
The weather gives us something to emulate.
To think of going abroad now would be insanity. It's a dereliction of duty to leave. Stay and dare, for once, to be happy in Britain. July has taken over from April as the cruellest month, annually raising expectations — of festivals, outdoor parties, playing tennis late into the night — and then dashing them with storms, flash floods and freakishly low temperatures. Then, blue-moonishly, July lives up to its mythic reputation and delivers the promised heat and balm, unleashing a period of unbroken and radiant euphoria. What torture it is when, unable to bear the uncertainty any more, one easyJets off to sunnier climes only to read that Britain is basking in a heatwave.
But next year, I'm sure, is going to be as sizzling and scorched as a barbecued sausage. August is a bridge month. August is for the bold. August may be a bridge but it's that intricate, grand one on the cover of the guidebook, the one "Not To Be Missed". I love the summer, but I like September more.

- 12 Months of the Year;
It's the month when life gets serious again after the holidays. I was a boarding-school child. Though I was happy in the holiday comfort of my parents' house, when the school trunk once again came up from the cellar, packed with lacrosse boots, jars of Marmite and the poems of John Masefield, I always felt a tremor of excitement — the September feeling. What lay behind this was a stark truth: I was totally absorbed by the work and activities of school and mildly bored at home.

It's the same now. We need holidays, but they mustn't last too long. Move on into that golden month, when the light on the pitch changes and the lacrosse games of the mind resume their pelting run. I grew up despairing of October. In Karachi, it can be the most oppressive of months, marked by heat and dryness and vanishing sea breezes. But when I went to university on the east coast of the United States, I discovered that hitherto unknown pleasure: Who knew leaves were capable of being so fantastically not-green?
In addition to its almost hallucinogenic colours, October brought with it the chance to wear sweaters, jackets, even scarves. Coming to London, I learned a quieter love for October. Here it's a month to put aside the hectic demands of summer and retreat indoors to write, to read.
12 Months of the Year
A month that still feels miraculous to someone who grew up with only two seasons. November ought to be a confused month. But, for me, November has a beautiful clarity to it. The air is unequivocally colder and the leaves will be off the trees. It is the penultimate month, when the chill descends and darkness closes in, pulling us from autumn into winter.
It has always held the promise of celebration peppered with a disruptive, pagan thrill. The medieval Irish festival of Samhain was held at the beginning of November, to mark harvest and the end of the year's light. Bonfires were lit, cattle slaughtered and fortunes divined. Even the cosmos joins in, with the Leonids putting on their annual shower. November is full of fires and frights and lights. The office Christmas party. Then, when you bring out the starters, they have remembered otherwise. And if you keep a wall or desk calendar at work or at home, get an English one next time.
Because I have heard said in both ways.
