Don't know about where you are, but Autumn (fall!) has arrived with a bang today.
It is absolutely wild outside, heavy rain and gale force winds. Up the Cairngorm mountains today they had gusts over 115mph (sustained 100mph).
I dropped the little one off at school and came home, set up my nest in a couple of bean bags, pulled a blanket over, put the telly on and fell asleep until the postie rang the door bell  The wife is picking her up after school, so I have no intention of going outside again today.
Due back offshore on Wednesday and todays flights are already cancelled, the forecast is due to get worse for the next 24 hours, so suspect tomorrows flights might be cancelled as well. Delays on the horizon perhaps...

Yes, autumn is definitely here...Daytime temperatures are back to 25-30 °C range and at night it is 15 °C cold...
We are thinking to start the heating season...
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

3C here last night - ouch! Still, it should be the end of the pesky mosquitoes until next spring.
Life is like a s**t sandwich; the more bread you have, the less s**t you eat.

Or as it's known in the UK - summer. And 15° isn't cold, it's T-shirt weather.

Like your rendition of a blown away guy, very nice!

Have you ever just looked at someone and knew the wheel was turning but the hamster was dead?
Trying to understand the behavior of some people is like trying to smell the color 9.
I'm not crazy, my reality is just different than yours!
Not my circus not my monkey's!

Cool!
This[^] is one of favorite pictures of all time, I have one framed and hung in my room. Being blown away reminded me of it!

Autumn is my favorite season, minus the wind and rain, of course. Get your rest, I'm sure you will need it soon.

I just got a great "job you might be interested in" e-mail based on a profile match.
The Nuclear Decommissioning Authority are looking for a new Head of Portfolio Management Office to join their team. While they are not a large organisation, they have a huge remit. They operate at a high level on significant scale projects with multi-sector stakeholders including senior government figures. The programmes themselves are carried out by a number of specialist subsidiary companies.
What does the hive mind think? Would this be a good job for me?

I expect the "fall out" will be massive.

Once you get my dognuts in your mouth, you just want more. :nomnomnom:

Whoops I didn't even notice - in my post it should have been doughnuts(not donuts D'oh), I choose to believe that they are better than the dog's bollocks.
I am not testing this theory however

Are they sure they're trying to hire someone? Sounds more like they're after investors.

Are the States taking political refugees from the UK at the moment? I might need to apply soon.
