The nights are drawing in

How quickly the winter is rushing towards us!

I realise that it has been unseasonably warm just of late but it is really apparent when it gets to the evening.  It is so depressing when the nights are drawing in and it is only a few short days away until the clocks go back to.

I have recently moved home and my new house is in a delightful, secluded leafy, (currently), lane.  It is really pleasant to sit in my conservatory and enjoy the quiet pleasure of looking at the different coloured leaves, but it won’t be long until they are all gone. The tan has almost gone and I need a holiday to top it up.

The horses are now in their winter jim jams at night, but blessedly the mud has not made an appearance yet.  I much prefer to be curled up in my home, all snuggly and warm, preferably with some company…… I have a new wood burning stove in my living room so I expect some cosy and hyponotic evenings in front of the fire.

Sky sports subscription to be updated as England hopefully continue their march  on the Sub-continent tomorrow.  The defeat against the Windies does not count as almost none of our good players were in it. Good luck to our cricketers!
