Autumn, the season of mists and mellow fruitfulness! Truly, a beautiful season - to look at and to smell.
BUT, the thought of having to sweep and gather up from my lawns and shubberies what, every year, seems like tons of decaying leaves (usually very wet and slimy), and then transport them in numerous car loads from now until after Christmas, to the local authority's recycling point almost 20 miles away (because having glorious bonfires is now anti-social!), fills me with horror!
That, and what is yet to come early in the New Year, unless Global Warming totally spares us from the frosts and biting winds we always have suffered in Winter, is what causes me to dislike Autumn and Winter so much. Already, I am longing for the warm Spring sunshine and the renewal of life outside the house.
STILL! I mustn't get maudlin'. After all, I've lots of cracking kilts to wear and enjoy! ;)
