I have no real idea why I feel this but I get the idea we're in for an

early
onset to autumn. Here and there in very scattered localities I've noticed
the small beginnings of a change in the colour of leaves on trees, really
tiny but just enough to make me wonder. Anyone else?

I agree. There are various flowers in my garden that aren't usually in
bloom until the end of August, and my blueberries are starting to ripen a
month early. It could be down to the good summer we've been having, but
today, even though it was sunny and warm, it felt like autumn in a way that
I can't quite put my finger on.

That's just it. It's that elusive 'something'. Some flowers are coming out
and going over rather more quickly than I'd expect and one or two mornings
and evenings have been comparatively chilly. But that said, tonight is hot
and very still and everything smells delicious in the garden! Very, very
weird!
