Summer’s over! (I hope)

Thanks for reminding me just off to look for the coatigan I have got hidden somewhere.

Bijou the shops are also full of yellows and reds and other vividAutumn colours.

Having consulted the weather forecast, I hope I can change into winter clothes next week.

I prefer the Autumn/Winter temperatures. Can't do the Summer heat now. Down here in Exeter, Devon, we have a temperate climate, but this Spring/Summer was unbearably hot. Currently, September has been way too warm, 18c today. I'm still in Summer clothes. Can't wait to get my woolies out.

I love the summer and really hate winter. I don’t like wearing heavy clothes and not being able to have an afternoon siesta in the garden.
Why do winter clothes have to be dark colours? Are they warmer than lighter colours? The shops are full of miserable blacks, browns and greys.

I'm glad it's Corfu. Much nicer.

So funny. It's Corfu. You do make me laugh.

Go on line for the Met Devon forecast.If its anything like Cornwall you are in for some rain.

Oh I'm with you Loislovesstewie, I love long Summer days feeling warm, enjoying meals in the garden, hours on the beach, or walking out & about with my grandkids. Winter sometimes means b
eing confined to our cold, draughty Edwardian house in a village with poor public transport. Roll on next Spring!

Ah. Thought you said "Court".

I’m in Corfu at present so prolonging summer although my DS tells me it’s warm back home. Once we get home I suppose the linens and cotton dresses will go away in favour of leggings and tunics. The arthritic joints have been great in the warmer weather. Will have to slowly acclimatise to darker evenings and colder mornings. And the dreaded C*******s shopping coming up!

"Chasing cardigan".

WTF?!

I like the paddling cardigan next to the one chosen by *Maw*

Though why you'd need a special cardigan for paddling God only knows. (I don't intend to do any paddling either)

I am a spring/summer person. I hate, just hate, the dark mornings and evenings and the gloomy weather it inevitably brings. This year however myself and DH are off to Australia early November, back late January, so not only do I get months more sunshine I avoid the C*****mas malarkey. Great news for the arthritic joints as well. Win win situation

Good question.Blame it on plenty of it at friend's,one of my bridesmaids, sunday 2019 ??Silver Wedding celeb.

Maw love the picture! - might have to buy one myself!

It turned cold as we came back from our holiday so as things got washed I put them away only to have to get some of them out again!!

I’m a Spring and Summer girl. I love birdsong and my garden full of flowers, bees and butterflies. I am the Goldilocks of temperatures though. I hate being cold. I like it warm, but not too warm . . . LOL!

I too love Seasalt clothes. It’s great that they do larger sizes in most of their range and don’t just pay ‘lip service’ to them. I don’t love that if I really like something, I have to pay full price, as their discount’s are rare and small when then do have them. Items tend to sell out, so waiting for a discount would, most often lead to disappointment. There clothes are a real pleasure to wear though.

Maw, I love your coatigan! We don't have Seasalt here but I shall have a look online.
I love summer, but it's very autumny here today and I'm enjoying being all cosy in a cuddly jumper ?

Love Gabriella’s ascerbic comments ?

I am not giving in to Autumn until the last minute Winter is long enough. Today here in Cumbria I had to take off my summer jacket and just walk about with a cardigan on its lovely weather here but isnt expected to last . Roll on spring 2020!

I've always liked autumn as I stop being bitten by any flying or crawling thing that exists! I like the autumn colours of the leaves and hedgerows.

Light coloured trousers put away but not much else yet. Love the colours of the autumn leaves but am concerned that this year many will have fallen before they've had a chance to change colour. I assume that's to do with the dry Summer.

MOnica - I have been waiting years for high waisted trousers to come back in. Drop waists come right across the 'middle age spread' and either slide down below it or I bulge out over the waistband. High waists sit neatly over the top of the flab. We are all different!

Long sleeved Joules harbour tops this week - I can save the snuggly sweaters until the temperature drops to single figures.

Love autumn but far too warm here for warmer clothes!
