On Fridy Fives for the Changing Season
Sep. 21st, 2018 04:41 pm1. Do you have the urge to do a Fall/Spring cleaning as soon as the weather turns?
I do not. Mostly I keep my house tidy on an on-going basis by being embarrassed by My Lovely Wife's houseproud nature and work ethic in to cleaning the bathroom more thorougly than she does.
2.What tells you that the season (a certain smell, a certain taste, that sort of thing) has changed?
Mostly in Edinburgh or Aberdeen it is the length of the day. It is very noticable how different the lengths of the days are in Scotland between summer and winter. In nothern Australia it was the cyclone warnings.
3.What do you look forward to the most with the change of seasons?
With this particular change of season - the Six Nations. It's about this time of year that we get the call to apply for our tickets. The Six Nations is about the only thing that makes February bearable given that otherwise it a short, dark, ugly month filled with mawkish and hopeless romantisism. It is the Ricky Gervais of the calander.
4. What is something that you probably should accomplish but won’t this season?
Getting rid of the red current bush in my garden.
5. What is the most enjoyable part of the oncoming season for you?
I do like a nice, crisp, bright autumn day with the slight scent of wood smoke and skeins of geese in the air, the prickle of cold hands on the central heating and the promise of a good story to come later in the evening
