So, as far as I am concerned autumn has now officially arrived. What makes it official? The KC is spending inordinate amounts of time indoors snuggled up either on cashmere jumpers in wardrobes or snuggled up to her mummy at night, the mornings are a little on the dark side as I drive through the fauxsurreycountry to drop fauxsurreyhubby at the station but that darkness soon dissipates & I am now rewarded by glorious sunrises over the stud farm opposite our house. But the thing that really put the lid on 'officially autumn' was that 2 nights ago the heating came on!
As the skies were clear & starry, the mercury dropped right down to 4 degrees and so the boiler whooshed into life for the first time in 5 months or so and the radiators made that unique click click "I'm waking up" noise and soon the house was beautifully warm.
We went out & bought a fire log so we can get a roaring fire going this weekend (weather forecast not great) and I have been burrowing about in the loft, swapping the suitcase full of summer gear for the suitcase full of cashmere socks & blankets. Ah. Next thing you know it'll be Bonfire Night ... then Christmas (yay!)
