You know its Autumn when ...............

[Nicos]

When the blanket over the summer duvet isn't enough to keep you warm at sillyo'clock.fr
Time for the winter duvet

[Nicos]

When you start to light the candles in the lounge each evening.

When Hibou decides she'd rather be in at night and out during the day...

When Hibou decides she'd rather be in at night and out during the day...

Is that the cat?
Mine meows by the door til it's opened, she then sniffs a few times before turning back inside Repeat every couple of hours....

I'm her slave, obviously

[Deano's "Diggin It"]

Getting dressed in the dark as not to disturb the rest of the "Household"

Only to find later, your undies are back to front, and ya socks are inside out!

[Nicos]

^^^^^ or, your knickers start to appear from the bottom of your trouser leg and the first you know about it is that you trip up over them in the middle of B&Q!

Does elastic go saggy in Autumn

[Nicos]

Keep up VC ...yesterday's knickers!
( that sounds even worse doesn't it?....maybe that should also be on the ' you know when you're getting old' thread...although, getting old, I may well have mentioned it on there and forgotten I mentioned it!)

Something nicer....
Hibou dashing about the garden trying to catch all the falling leaves!

*The berries arrive on the mistletoe,
*it gets dark before I have finished cooking supper...... I hate cooking in the dark evenings.
*driving up to the house we notice the colours changing in the forest at the top of the road,
*the ****y squirrels are burying their nuts in my garden, I'll bury their nuts for them!!!!
*the chickens get up later so the neighbours get a lie in,
* a hankering for lambs shanks in red wine, soup or casseroles are needed for supper
* the fudgy apple pudding and cream recipes starts shouting to be made,
* all puddings need custard not the homemade ice cream,
*the freezers start shouting at me to fill them with Christmas goodies,
* the Christmas quilling, and stocking embroidery comes out to be finished, and I catch up on all the series I have recorded,
*the candles are lit and the blackberry whisky gets poured, just to ward off colds you understand, purely medicinal of course.
*we hear the tawnies more often.
* the snuggly dressing gowns come out of the cupboards.
