Not a great start to the day. Cool, cloudy and showers. Forecast not that great either.

A lot happening now. Ploughing, drilling, etc. I have yet to see a crop of Oilseed Rape emerging..........sign of the times............

More ran last night. Now very unsettled, and cool and windy.

AUTUMN........................

Heavy rain overnight. Done a lot of good.

Now sunshine with the threat of showers. Much cooler. Autumn has arrived!!

Rain. Quite heavy at about six this morning. Cooler as well. Has now stopped raining, and the sun is peeping through. Looking unsettled, though.

Autumn Solstice as well. From now on, the nights become longer than the days. Ah well, 'If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind?'

Lots of activity on the land. Ploughing, one pass cultivation, and drilling going on. So far it's been a very 'open' autumn. That might be about to change.

Yet another wonderful day. Our 'Indian Summer' has done us proud this year.

It looks as though this may well be the last day of it. The glass has fallen dramatically overnight.

Make the most of today...........

Don't really know if it's worth starting this thread, but here goes. A lot of autumn cultivation has taken place now. No late crops left to harvest around here. Even in the fen it's all done. Not sure as yet as to how much Oilseed Rape has been drilled, but I haven't seen any emergence when driving ...

The 'Indian Summer' continues on. Wonderful day today. Slightly breezy, which takes the edge off the temperature, but still over 20 degrees. Not bad for late September.

Only three more days to the Equinox. Then the days really will start to draw in. Ah well, can't be helped, I suppose.

A lovely autumn day again. Not as warm as recently, but sunshine from a clear blue sky all day.

I did notice that my glass has gone back quite a bit. Maybe the 'Indian Summer' is coming to an end???

The 'Indian Summer' continues. Although slightly more chilly in the mornings, the days are beautiful and quite warm.

A lovely autumn so far.

Another lovely day, although more cloud about than yesterday.

Still warm. More breeze than yesterday. Good weather for this time of year.

Going to be a hot one today.

An 'Indian Summer' methinks.

A truly beautiful autumn day. Warm, sunny from a clear blue sky, and the slightest of breezes.

Bliss.......................

Cloudy and slightly autumnal.

Glass has been dropping back.
