It rained last night for the first time in what felt like weeks. I usually don't like wet weather but after this relentless sunny bullshit it was very welcome. It's also a bit cooler today which is nice :)

I went and stood out in the very brief shower we were treated to, glad the heat has finally broken.

I moved house this weekend, felt like hell. 😒

Having moved house last year in that week-long heatwave we had in August, I feel your pain. Being forced to build a sofa and move a double mattress by yourself when it's 30 degrees, lest you have nothing to sit or sleep on, isn't a lot of fun.

When it begins doing dark by 8 and there's a lovely crisp coldness out when you open the door. Bliss.

Ah, a fellow lover of the autumn.
I'm counting the days 'til the clocks go back.
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Same here. Today was the first day I've noticed it being cooler, which is wonderful.

It's been significantly cooler in the early mornings for a week or so now. I think today it was 9 degrees when I set off for the supermarket.

I enjoy the colours and temperateness of Autumn but I really can't stand when it starts getting dark early. Summer is by far my preferred season just because we get so much daylight, I love it when the sun doesn't set until nearly 10pm.

I love autumn and winter with the exception of the short days. Dark on the way to work and dark by the time you get home is balls.

I do much prefer the moderate/cool temperatures in the UK than the hot stuff. This last week or two has been so pleasant compared to the previous 2 months. It's just nice to be able to decide how warm I want to be! When it's 25C+ you're fucked and there's nothing really you can do about it, homes just turn into a furnace and the heat remains trapped.

I'm fortunate in that I work from home, so can pop out during the day and experience daylight in the autumn/winter - and finish some work in the evening if I need to.

Big thanks to Dave for creating our new forum seasonal spooky banner.

Wasn't sure where to post this, but he deserves a blood good praise so this seemed appropriate.

And I hadn't even noticed until you pointed it out :)

In fairness, I only changed it about five minutes before making the post. It hasn't been up all month.
