Last holiday this year, What happened to summer?

Well, it's nearly October and tomorrow I'm going on the last holiday this year. We have been deceived yet again as, the so called heatvawe never arrived. This has got to have been the worst 'summer' for a long time.
This week in particular, it has been very cold and last night it was almost frost. And the say we are suffering from global warming!!!
I feel a little guilty going away for a week as the office is inundated with work. We have an awful lot of new developments and voids at this moment and there is as much overtime available as anyone would want.
Anyway, I can't wait. I have never been to Torquay before so it will be nice regardless of the weather. Speak to you again in the middle of next month. Cherio.

Is this the end of summer?

Blackpool was fantastic as ever. We bought a fcouple of five-day tram tickets, so there was very little driving. We went all over the place on the trams and buses instead.
On the friday when the illuminations were due to start; there was a huge open air consert. David Tennent and the Daleks from Doctor Who lit the illuminations. It was a fabulous night.
Ever since we got back the weather has been going downbank. At one time we were promised that we were having a heatwave this month but so far there has been no sign of it. This week I had to put the heating back on (just for mornings) and that is disappointing for this time of year.
