Default Its that time of year we look for natures clues as to the coming winter

I saw the foxes in my garden looking very interested in a Caribbean Cruise

Leaves starting to turn here now Lawrence and house martins have left early.
If I see a sheep farmer I'll ask him what it all means, oh ah! :-)

New shoes. They are the usual favourite.
Odds and socks though. And they just don't seem to have ANY taste

Strangely enough, this morning I've been mauling (splitting) some beech
