SUMMER STARTS HERE! Your guide to eat, sleep, rave, repeat

So it’s summer time and (supposedly) the living is easy. Except for one thing: it’s not. Keeping up with the endless tide of picnics and pool parties (read: Instagrammable inflatables at your local-authority lido) can be hard work. Don’t even get us started on roof anxiety. I mean, really – with so many places to drink at altitude, how are you possibly supposed to pick the right one? The one with the maximum amount of sunshine, poshest loos or highest bar-staff-to-drinker ratio? Making a mistake at this time of year could be the difference between drinking warm cider in a Yates’ car park surrounded by people taking flower-crown selfies, and drinking port and tonic (aka the P&T, summer’s hottest sip, read on for more info), 42 floors above the city. Which is why we’ve taken the liberty of compiling a fail-safe guide to the next 60 days of sunshine. From urban beaches to what to wear to stand out at a festival (glitter, glitter and more glitter), as well as what and where to drink, dance and dine over this fleeting season, you’re covered.
