No to all of these except that I leave for work in the dark and return in the dark, but have done since mid-September. My hours suck.

Also, I make roasts and casseroles all year round.

The coat went on for the first time yesterday.

I was mulling that same decision yesterday, in the end I went for thick jumper as was only going up to the bank and shops. 

Maybe tomorrow.  :bowler:

I've heard several comments about the trees here not turning.

Only in the last week or 10 days have some here in the Forest started turning.  :bowler:

Jumper makes no fucking sense.  Sometimes a sweater makes you sweat, but it never makes you jump.

Very Autumn. Deer Season starts Saturday.

The word may have originated in America, some of it's earliest uses seem linked the North America.  :bowler:

Those were terrible examples.

QuoteMid 19th century (in jumper): probably from dialect jump 'short coat', perhaps from Scots jupe 'a man's (later also a woman's) loose jacket or tunic', via Old French from Arabic jubba. Compare with jibba.

Toddlers wear jumpers, man.  Ed's wife's honeymoon negligee was by Osh Kosh B'gosh, you know.

Shopping on Saturday sucked. It was ca. 12 degrees and sunny.

So you have two options: wear something so you're comfortable in the sun, which means you freeze every time you get out of the sun.

Or, wear something so you're comfortable in the shade. Which means you're sweating like a pig in the sun and any shop and public transport, because apparently heaters can only be set to either 0 or 9th Circle of Hell.

When I came home I felt grimy and disgusting and had to take another shower.

It's not like I have much of a choice if I want to do more than a quick trip to one or two stores.
