Pink amid the autumnal colours
It’s 20 days since the last picture of honeysuckle flowers and there are still some blooming.
Tomorrow is the 1st of November

First victim of the winter
Stone star break on the outside, a satnav support suction cup on the inside and maybe too much heat when defrosting the windscreen.
Not as yet sure if the insurance covers this.
Ho hum…
Update : The good news is that the cost of a new windscreen is mostly covered by the insurance. So the car gets to soldier on a bit longer.
-3’c – winter is coming
Back to normal morning temperatures…
Yesterday I had to defrost the car for the first time this autumn. Today, the first normal frost of the autumn.
I guess I am going to have to phone the heat pump installers I asked to quote for some air to air heat pumps.
I often have the feeling that Norwegian companies really don’t want customers given the amount you have to hassle them just to get a quote…
Blooming late!
We have flowers in our garden that would normally have been taken by the first frost some time in September. The weather is still very mild (14’c when I took these pictures) and we might just get some more roses if we are lucky.
A few flowers remain while sutumn carries on regardless…
Sunflowers in the early evening sun.
Citizen Kane, last gasp…
First frost
Frozen droplets of water on woodshed roof.
A thin layer of frost on the balcony.
The sunflowers seem to have survived their first brush with sub-zero Svenseid.
All in all we have had an unusually fine and long Indian summer. I wonder if it means that we are in for a cold and long winter…
Hobson’s choices.
Woken too early.
My sinuses telling me that autumn is coming.
Kept awake.
My back telling me that old age is coming.
It is too warm for autumn.
I am to young to be old.
The leaves have started to fall.
