I've put my fluffy slippers on this afternoon and made a casserole.

That's it, isn't it? Summer is over.

You may as well put the heating on - you're definitely in Autumn mode.

I have made a big pot of soup.

I have made a big pot of soup.

I was thinking this morning I fancied a big pot of homemade soup, also been craving cottage pie…and I’ve started putting candles on in the evening!

@Sortalike It was thinking about putting the heating on that made me put my slippers on instead!

I went to the beach and had an ice cream. And a glass of rose. Definitely in north Wales, it's still summer drizzle...

FuzzyWolf · 02/09/2025 16:34

Slipper and a casserole sounds exactly what is needed for today. I agree, it’s definitely no longer summer.

Lovely day here in the west of Scotland. I've just been feeding the lawns wearing shorts and t shirt and it's warm and sunny.

Funsummerfun · 02/09/2025 16:36

Oh noooo - I'm still on holiday somewhere hot and it was warm when we left home. We fly home tomorrow 😭

Sat on my electric blanket with dd

Munching grapes

Autumn is here 😍🍂🤎

bliss 😊

AllrightNowBaby · 02/09/2025 16:40

I put my heating on last night and had a curry 😊

I was the only one at the school gates in shorts and T shirt today, I just feel the heat and won’t be comfortable in long jeans for a while yet.

Topseyt123 · 02/09/2025 16:44

It feels a bit autumnal now, but I am still wearing shorts (Bermuda style) with a t-shirt and cardigan. I've worn my winter slippers quite often recently, especially in the evenings.

I haven't gone for soup much yet but did bake a loaf of bread today. 😃

Fooshufflewickjbannanapants · 02/09/2025 16:45

We’re having stew and dumplings!

Ginisatonic · 02/09/2025 16:48

I’m on a train which has just left Glasgow central and the heating is on full blast! It’s 17C outside so no need!

swampwitch0 · 02/09/2025 16:50

I was in M&S earlier this morning in a large city...
Heat blasting...I felt quite unwell and had to leave

Fastingandhungry · 02/09/2025 16:51

Lots of gilet wearing people on the train today.

OriginalUsername2 · 02/09/2025 16:53

I was just thinking, do I make this chicken a salad or a late roast dinner 🤔

BG2015 · 02/09/2025 16:54

I've made soup too

I lit the wood burner last night, ordered a load of firewood this afternoon and fancied porridge for breakfast. It's Autumn in my head.

PeonyPatch · 02/09/2025 16:55

I quite enjoy Autumn 🍂 🤭

PollyDarton1 · 02/09/2025 16:57

It’s 21c here in East Anglia. If we’d had these temps in April we’d have been cracking open the picky bits 😂

OdeToTheNorthWestWind · 02/09/2025 16:58

My heating is already on because the boiler service man is here. It's like a sauna. Quick, open all the windows! 😁

Winter draw(er)s on!

It’s been lovely here today in the North West. Sun shining

Fibrous · 02/09/2025 17:01

Well I had soup for lunch - but it was gazpacho, and it's been lovely and sunny here in the NW.
