The Carnival Is Over, Summer Is No More....

[HonaloochieB]

Seasons is as seasons does as I'm sure one of Moos' Northern forebears would have remarked.

I like 'em all, prefer the cold to the rain though. I just like them to be proper, hot summer, cold snowy winter etc.

Not like some of these pissarse can't make their ruddy minds up seasons we sometimes get lumbered with.

Still I try to look on the bright side and generally take a 'many a mickle makes a muckle' attitude to the whole thing.

Well to say farewell to Summer we are going to Mount Ephraim Gardens Sunday 13th for Apple Sunday. All sounds lovely.

Light the fire, get out the coats...

Hang on a minute

You can usually tell when the end of summer is near, because thattwatNigel from accounts chooses the first cooler day to tell everyone that the nights are drawing in. When this elicits no response, he details how many shopping days are left till Christmas. Finally, as his trump card, he tells everyone that he knows summer must be over because it took him 13 minutes longer than usual to drive to work this morning. Because the schools are back, you see.

Nigel loves this time of year. Last year he kept up a running commentary on the state of Tracy's peeling, then fading, tan, until the office manager had to take him aside and say that although everyone enjoys a bit of banter, he was beginning to freak Tracy out a bit. Since then, Nigel has always made sure that whenever Tracy asks him for updated costings, he delays opening her email for a couple of days. Let the snooty bitch wait for her figures.

I find that the most accurate way of assessing the seasons transit is to observe the habits of OAP's. When they dress down it's summer and when the scarf and mitts come out it's winter.

They buy Bovril all year round so that can throw you off track now and again.

Another thread insulting the elderly of East Dulwich.

You got your gale force draft excluder fitted yet grandad?

[Ted Max]

No, I got my free energy-efficiency upgrade: loft and wall cavities insulated, triple glazing, combi boiler. All on your taxes.

Thanks for that. Means I can spend the winter fuel allowance on crumble, pie and coke.

pesky winter, 27 degrees tomorrow

There was me thinking life ended at Eastbourne. How wrong I was.

Pah, I fully intend to develop a full blown drug habit after retirement.

That is what this thread is about isn?t it?

[Ted Max]

I didn't intend to develop a full blown drugs habit after retirement. But this thread has changed that.

Also, it's made me want to wear hats in the dark. I suppose the two ambitions could very well be combined.

[Brendan]

I don?t think a habit is really a hat though. It?s more of a scarffy type thing. But see what you?re saying man.

[Brendan]

Cold innit?

[Muley]

Nuns wear habits. And wimples. But you never hear of anyone with a drug wimple, do you?

Well do you?

[Brendan]

I may just have to start one then.

How does one go about starting a drug wimple? Is it anything like a Wimpy?

I think you organic your own clothes from hemp, set yourself alight, inhale deeply and hold...

[Brendan]

Oh?

Sounds a bit like yoga.

[bigbadwolf]

Ha ha, that was good Brendan.
