Following a summer with some extraordinary variations of the norm and in which bushfires were very rare (for which we are most thankful) and summer rain brought disastrous floods to parts of the country, we are now experiencing the first sharp, cool mornings of autumn.

In the upper mountains trees are showing their golden colours and clear skies after occasional overnight rain lead to patches of fog in the many valleys. The wisps of smoke rising from chimneys are less common today as we have been encouraged to replace solid fuel heaters with non-polluting gas or electric heating.

Your reflection on our response to the changing seasons is equally true here, even though the magnitude of the the temperature variations is nowhere near the extremes that you experience. Shorts and tee shirts have not yet been stored away,but it is time to get out the track suits for the chilly mornings.

Glad to read that Mr and Mrs C are back. That would be a special joy for A11 and all of you.

And it is so true what you said about our different responses to temperature in different seasons.
