Well, it's certainly getting cooler. Down to 21C today and very cloudy. OH put a quilt on the bed about 4 days ago(which I keep kicking off) and makes me close all the doors upstairs to stop the draught.
And, to cap it all off and prove Winter's coming, I saw my first Brit expat in shorts, flip-flops and fleece today. A sure sign.

We left Spain on Saturday after almost a month there. The weather was fantastic, sunshine every day and unseasonally hot -Even on our last night there we did not need even a light jacket - All in all it was the best October we have had but it's generally nice then anyway.
UK last 2 days has been cold, drissly and raining...that's Winter on the way!!!

Turned out lovely this afternoon. Up to 24C and the sun came out. Even put the aircon back on in the car.
Forecast for a boring week of 24C all next week with just the odd cloud.

A really lovely 28C here this afternoon. Got quite warm walking around in the sun.
Still, just a reminder that winter is coming as the clocks go back this weekend.
I wonder which one I'll forget to do this year? There's always one.
