Good Day to you Captain. I'm so glad you printed the first few lines of Autumn Leaves, I've been singing the wrong words for years. I thought it was,Frank's old song sums it up
The falling leaves
Drift by the window
The autumn leaves
Of red and gold
The days grow long
And soon I'll hear
Old winter's song
The weather of the last few days offer false hope maybe, but you wonder what sort of winter we will endure this year.
Yes Rick, the UK does do that daylight saving thing. We can't be very far now from "fall-back" when at least one gets an extra hour in the day.
I used to hate both leaving for work and getting home in the dark, having to take my shoes off on the doorstep as never quite sure what I might have trodden in.
