Well, that was the bank holiday, now it's winter!

It already feels like that here. I'm wearing my red winter cardie and my black winter shoes, and I'm fed up with this feeling that summer is already over when I don't remember it beginning. All of the shops are branding "Back To School" banners, and that always brings back those dreaded feelings that we used to get when we were kids, that the summer hols are drawing to an end and the daily grind of school starts again.

Here's hoping for an unexpected Indian Summer.

Somehow I reckon that this year, it's not going to happen...
