Where did the summer go?

Last time I wrote at the beginning of August, the weather was wet and it just got wetter for the next month. Keswick show went ahead on Bank Holiday Monday, but the field was a terrible mess afterwards. Several more local shows were cancelled and the Hutton International eventing fixture for 12th/13th september was also cancelled. We did however manage to get to Westmorland county Show, and to a couple of horse trials in late September.
Kev and I then had a week away from it all in Portugal, and whilst the weather was mainly very hot and sunny, there was the most amazing rain on our second last night - it bounced of the pavements, but thankfully we were in a restaurant at the time!
Back home now, and lots of jobs to catch up on! The trees are changing rapidly, with some glorious autumn colours at the moment, but it is a shock when the clocks go back at how quickly it gets dark.
