Some great choices on here over the past 24 hours I can barely keep up!...personally I love september and autumn although I can appreciate it has a rather melancholy tone.

Eee! I know what you mean. Chin up lass. :-)

Three original fell poets all on at once. Blimey. That's not happened for a while! Hi to you both. x

I was just thinking the same thing! Its a rare occasion these days. Good to be with you both.

Ha Ha ! good luck with that one Harry, can I remind you two and all frequenters of the thread to check out the durham literary festival website as loads of poets are performing and it could be a good time to meet up.....Hes I am OK (just about!) x

Night HHH, enjoy the farm! X
Thanks for the tip off Freckle, I'll take a look. It would be great to meet up and maybe have a wee run too. I'm off to bed now but will be in touch, would be good to hear how you're getting on. Night night xx

Fantastic Hes, and you've really caught the somber spirit of the moment. Ran up Cairn Gorm last Sunday and it was 'full-on/ no holds barred' winter, snow, severely below zero wind chill, dense cloud and gloves icing up!!! No single vestige of summer there anymore!

Another gem from Piet Hein, thinking like the physicist he was....

I'd like to know
what this whole show
is all about
before it's out

Chinese noodles
just like doodles
egg fried rice
is very nice
