Summer will be over for a while in a couple of weeks time when I venture up to the frozen wastelands for a fortnight staying around the lake district. Then it will warm up again until the middle of November when it starts getting chilly at night. But instead of changing into longjohns I will disappear and fly south to the Canaries for a while, come back at Xmas. then 3 weeks after that it will be the start of spring. Unless the weather buggers it up again ;)

Well I'm still in shorts and t shirts so not for a while yet, although the OH has put the rads on, I just turn them off when she's not looking.    ;D ;D ;D

Home from the Great Dorset Steam Fair - pull up the drawbridge winter is on it's way!

Thought of another couple.  When runner beans are running out, and when you need to clear the greenhouse of tomatoes.  :( :(

I also agree with shirlton, 22nd September.  Autumn equinox.  More hours of dark, rather than light until the Winter solstice. :'( :'(

The end of August was very cold abd miserable but it is hard to think that summer is nearly over.  It has been a lovely day wall to wall sunshine.  Ocutber can sometimes be very nice.  One year about 1987  the warmest day of the eintire year was in October.  But looks like it is downhill from now on.

Same with me Kev, it will be a few more weeks before I have to put my big boys trousers back on.

You'll need two pairs when your up in the wastelands Ace and don't forget your woolly vest, passport and translater.     :-X     ;D ;D ;D

Blimey mate is it going to be that cold up there. I was of a mind to get two or three of those northern wenches to keep me warm at night for a couple of shillings, but then I realised they will be smothered in goose fat and sewn into their underwear for the duration. They could be a bit whiffy by then. Still I could take a couple of bottles of brut to splash all over. No, second thoughts on that, It might make them a bit too much lustful. ;)

when I suddenly realise that in just a few weeks it'll be time to sow next year's garlic :o

But until then...tomatoes, courgettes and lettuce are still going strong, so it's still summer as far as I'm concerned!
