It's raining quite hard this morning, and has done so all night. It's also feeling very humid and warm, 16 degrees in fact at 7am. It is one of those moist warmth's we get down here in the South West when Tropical storms scudding over the Atlantic ocean finally reach us in a much reduced state of energy. It is also very autumnal now. The long dry July and August are well behind us and as I walked into work this morning at 7.30am through the street of Bristol, a confetti of golden leaves fell all around me onto the sodden pavements of Clifton.
After early spring, I love autumn above all other seasons for the change in seasons it brings with it. A sense that its time to slow down and retreat, put the fires on and hibernate.
