Well it definitely feels like Autumn

[PinkvSantaboots]

I was basking in 23 degrees during the day last week and 12 at night, it is going down to 1 tonight and only got up to 9 degrees today so a definite chill in the air, funnily enough I quite liked it as it was lovely and sunny all day which is my favourite winter weather.

I've just looked beyond Tuesday and rain is forecast solid for 10 days and I'm not looking forward to that .

I'm really not liking these mild wet winters we seem to be getting now.

I dug out my winter breeches for my lesson this morning and wore my softshell jacket! I was a little too warm but it's better than be too cold!

Same for us last week, shorts back on and lovely warm weather. But I do like a proper autumn day, which it was today.

I know I foolishly put a t shirt on and flung a light weight jacket on to walk the dogs and I was freezing

Same here it was a lovely day, I will miss my shorts though

We are going to our house in Fuerteventura beginning of November so I can get them washed and wear them again for a few days at least until next year.

I'll get the chance for shorts when I go on holiday in November. That said, I only normally wear shorts in the UK when going for a run.

Did some gardening and there was a really bite to the air, however I hate the heat so much prefer this especially as it's supposed to be autumn. Not quite at the point of putting the lovely thick duvet on the bed yet but looking forward to it!

 

[Kunoichi73]

I put my autumn PJs on for the first time last night. I don't really need them in bed, but getting out of bed in the morning is now getting chilly. Still in the autumn duvet though.

Not jealous, not jealous, not……

I still have my 4 tog summer one I get really hot sleeping and only ever go up to a 7 tog.

I still have my 4 tog summer one I get really hot sleeping and only ever go up to a 7 tog.

I stay in a 4 tog all year, I just add blankets in winter. I hate thick duvets.

I was riding in lovely autumny sun this morning, just two degrees

I would love that and it has to be baltic before I change it, I just put an over quilt on top for my poor oh who freezes in winter because of my menopause

 

[southerncomfort]

Light frost here this morning and the gritters were out tonight!

 

[COldNag]

I have put the electric blanket on the bed.

That is probably the only thing I like about it getting colder!

I really feel the cold in bed. I'm sure when I climb under the duvet my body temperature drops to negative figures!

However, since starting menopause, it's a little later in the year than it used to be that I need the full winter duvet on.

Mine is the opposite, he sweats cause I cant stand to be cold

I love my leccy blanket

OH went mad and lit the aga and woodburner today. There was no stopping him.
It's quite warm here now.

 

[splashgirl45]

I took a hot water bottle to bed last night and was lovely and warm. I did enjoy my long walk with my dogs today , lovely and sunny but chilly, great dog walking weather

 

[Nicnac]

I was on a Greek island last week so am really feeling the cold this weekend! Put on summer clothes to ride today and thought my legs were going to fall off. Horses are still out but rugged last night and tonight as clipped and I've got thick trackie bottoms, alpaca socks, a long sleeved thermal top and my Oodie on this evening AND the heating's on. It's bloody freezing.

And the winter duvet went on yesterday. Was shivering Friday night.

I still have my 4 tog summer one I get really hot sleeping and only ever go up to a 7 tog.

i have a 13.5 tog duvet all year round

today is my kind of weather - dry, cold enough that i don’t have to keep taking layers on and off, but not so cold that i regret ever having horses! besides having to wait for the frosty grass to melt, but even that isn’t so bad as my field gets the sun pretty early

 

[PinkvSantaboots]

I put our electric radiator on low for a few hours in the lounge now I'm boiling so turned it off I've got very thin pj's on I feel they will be off in the night as well.

 

[Esmae]

Put the central heating on this evening. Was quite chill. Fetching in the horses at night from Wednesday for the winter. Is it nearly spring yet??

 

[Barton Bounty]

I love my leccy blanket

My hubby is my leccy blankie

But seriously this is just next to my work, a house went on fire from a brand new leccy blanket a few weeks ago. Woman was bathing her little girl 3 and put it on for her, next thing , burning and they fled the house, there is nothing left

I love my leccy blanket

Trouble is... so do my dogs

Second day of frost here. Was a glorious day yesterday, wish it would continue. Dreading the rain that is forecast, I hate getting wet. My heating actually came on yesterday. It has been coming on first thing for a day or two but yesterday it came on at lunchtime and evening as well. It is set for an hour morning and lunchtime and three hours in the evening.

 

[lynz88]

Frosty here. Put heating on last night too. Time to break out the dehumidifier pucks as lots of condensation on the windows this morning
