When the schools go back is the beginning of the end. But when the Proms are over Summer's well & truly gone!

Autumn digging, seed catalogues & making Christmas cards from then on....

Tell me when it started and I'll tell you when it finished lol  ;D

On an average year I'd say end of September.  This year...................I'm still waiting!

When the kids go back to school, the vine in my back yard turns red & I have to switch the heating on.

All happened on the same day this year .. last Wednesday  :'(
