It's Official - Farewell summer

[fah]

For those of us north of the equator summer is officially over.

Let the leaves begin to fall.

Bye summer, it was fun while it lasted

 

[Mr. BAW]

Its cooled off quite nicely; we've used the comforter for the past 2 nights....:warmandsnuggly:

 

[Salome]

in honour of autumn the weather has sucked the last 3 months over here

Aww warm and snuggly baws


HEY - You've changed your sig and avatar

 

[BluRmGrl]

Weather here (southeastern NC) is cooperating nicely with Autumn. Temps have been upper 70s to lower 80s past 4-5 days w/55-60s in the evenings - the AC's off & the windows are open! I hope it continues....I LIVE for highs in the 50s-60s and no stinkin' humidity!

Can't really enjoy my football when it's warm out, ya know?

 

[Doozer61]

happy fall!!

Yes, football just isn't right if you are not bundled up freezing your ass off

This is where the summer ends
In a flash of pure destruction, no one wins
Goin' nuclear...nuclear
The violets in my eyelids goin' red

Sentimental geek
Shut up and go to sleep

They combed the beach and the remains
Of the bathing suits and Porsches all in flames
Goin' nuclear...nuclear
When I saw her, the Yankees lost to the Braves

Sentimental geek
Sentimental geek
Sentimental geek
Shut up and go to sleep

Give me an answer
Give me an answer
Give me an answer
Give me an answer

 

[JessicaAnn]

It was summer?

You could have fooled me.

 

[tiny dancer]

The leaves are just starting to turn and soon the trees willl be bare. Bye bye summer.

 

[Mr. BAW]

Its been a very good year...wishing for a bountiful fall and winter!

Only 94 days till Xmas!!!! hahahaha..uh, hohohohohoho!

 

[fah]

Only 94 shopping days left

 

[Angela Harlem]

You people are happy that your summer is over?

Are you bloody nuts????????


I am going to resurrect this thread in a few days when you start whinging about the 28 feet of snow which is making your rooves cave in and freeze up your drain pipes.


Nutters!

 

[fah]

And happy spring to you Ms Harlem

 

[Angela Harlem]

our seasons change on the first of the month though. i only found out recently we are infact unusual in this

 

[Tomer]

why does everything have to be different at yours?

 

[Angela Harlem]

i truly had no idea that we are the odd ones. it never crossed my mind that other places might be different.

so why is it september 22? isnt it a bit random?

 

[Salome]

i truly had no idea that we are the odd ones.

I shall just blame it on your dolphin knickers though

 

[Tomer]

[Doozer61]

Winter is December 22
Spring is March 22
Summer is June 22

So Aus is the only country to do it this way? Surely not

And Johan leave my knickers out of this.

 

[Mr. BAW]

Farewell my ass...high pressure system over the mountain region pushed us into the 90's for the past 5 days!!!

And yes, BAW got her A/C on today!

Not that I didn't believe Ms Harlem but it is explained here (sort of):

[Angela Harlem]

According to Victoria we aren't the only ones! We're not alone!

 

[fah]

But who else is in your special club?

 

[Angela Harlem]

Probably all the places no one cares about like Samoa, Tonga, New Zealand, Micronesia, Polynesia...
