Sumtumn (not Summer, not autumn)

I apologise; it's been ages since I last posted. And a lot has changed.

Not only has the hot weather been exchanged for misty mornings and biting winds, but the bees and wasps and bugs that were omnipresent all summer have all disappeared and are now rarely seen. But the leaves haven't yet fallen so let's not think about winter yet!

Instead I want to talk about the time when it's not quite autumn but not quite summer - when you go out in a jumper, not a coat, and when the leaves haven't quite fallen yet. It is during this time that the butterflies fly away and the hedgehogs ponder in.

So keep your eyes open for the annual changes! I'm sorry that there's no story this time, but next time...
