Shopping on Saturday sucks regardless of the weather.



Depends where, right? I mean I can think of many hellish places in London to go shopping but there are also many places where there won't be all that many people around.

I'm thinking city centres, where most weekend shopping happens.

Major cities are a bit different as 'city centre' is a bit nebulous and there are parts in the centre where the are crazy crowds (Broadway, Herald Square - NYC and Oxford Street, Westfield Stratford - London) but then lots of smaller (still central) neighborhood versions of same stores where not so crowed.

I try to hit the mandatory shopping early on Sunday mornings when everyone's sleeping in, going to church or had already done it the day before.

Just how old are you again?

Have you had the heating on? - Yes
Have you changed to winter bedding? - No
Are you wearing nightwear to bed? - Yes
Have you worn a scarf? - No
Have you worn gloves? - No
Have your glasses steamed up when you've walked indoors? - No
Have you walked through crunchy leaves? - Yes
Have you made warming meals (roast dinner, casserole etc?) - No
Have you left for work in the dark? - No
Have you returned from work in the dark? - No

My heat is set to automatically come on if the temps in the house go below the low/mid 60sF. I just leave it at that. The heat hasn't come on much but it got cold a few times over night, down to freezing or below freezing temps.

Old enough that I appreciate smaller lines and less people to deal with in this suburban terrorscape of bullshit.
Why, how old are you, Cunty Cuntfuck McCunterson?

No snow shovelling yet, to really let you know Autumn has arrived?   :P

No to everything. I would probably die if I put heavy blankets on the bed, turned the heater on, etc.

Hey, my sunglasses fog up when I go outside though! Pretty sure that doesn't count as "autumn' though.  :P

The palm trees outside my window are doing fine, and I picked a lemon from the tree over the top of where I park my car.

Autumn here is fine.

Since you've relocated, have you gone all Shawshank and started working on an abandoned boat on the beach?
