Ferries out of Portsmouth and Poole stopped I hear :-(

What have you got and where are you?

Why is everybody so eager to rush into winter? They complain they've had no summer (it's
not been THAT bad) and one bit of wind and rain and it's winter!

Enjoy the benefits of Autumn when it really does arrive in 2 weeks' time. There was a
beautiful mist over the water meadows a few days ago and sunshine which lifted my spirits
no end.
