AIBU to be excited it's nearly Autumn

Hello all, new to Mumsnet and not sure if this post is in the appropriate place? Sorry if not...

Anyway, was having a discussion with the ladies at work about how the tree leaves are already starting to change colour. The nights are slowly drawing back in and it feels cooler (although it seems to have warmed up again today).

This got me feeling excited as I absolutely love autumn and the '...ber' months!

Apart from one colleague who feels the same, the others think I'm strange for loving Autumn!

Anyone else? :D

You're not strange at all, i absolutely love autumn! Its my favourite season Smile

CommonSenseIsNotAllThatCommon · 10/08/2017 18:42

It is Autumn. August September and October are the months of Autumn. At least they were when I was in school.

Love love love Autumn, always have. Crisp bright days, crunchy leaves, smoky smells in the air, big coats, gorgeous colours...can't wait! :)

zen1 · 10/08/2017 18:44

My favourite time of year too! All the lovely colours, the smell of bonfires, chilly evenings...

Hunkle · 10/08/2017 18:44

YABU.

I want more beach lazing around walking.

The80sweregreat · 10/08/2017 18:44

I prefer autumn to summer in the UK.
However, i saw the big tin of sweets in tesco today for christmas.
Thought that was a bit early..
This year has flown by.

SabineUndine · 10/08/2017 18:45

YABU. We ain't had summer yet!

Out2pasture · 10/08/2017 18:45

Autumn is the best :)

Coconutspongexo · 10/08/2017 18:47

I love Autumn too, cannot wait!

CaoNiMartacus · 10/08/2017 18:49

Another Autumn fan here!

There's definitely a whiff of it in the air.

IamnotaStepfordHousewife · 10/08/2017 18:49

So excited. Getting my Autumny decorations ready.

ilovesooty · 10/08/2017 18:49

It's depressing as far as I'm concerned. I'm trying not to think about it.

Oops4 · 10/08/2017 18:49

Nope,best time of year 🍁🍂

hoover1234 · 10/08/2017 18:49

I love autumn! October is possibly my favourite month, not hot but not cold and can get a bit cosy plus all the beautiful colours of nature. AND the slow build up to Christmas 🙈
Summer is far too hot for my liking

CommonSenseIsNotAllThatCommon · 10/08/2017 18:53

Maybe Ireland has different ones. Feb March April spring, may June July summer August September October autumn and November December January winter.

CryingMessFFS · 10/08/2017 18:54

Me too! September is when I get excited, I love all the changing colours of the leaves, the cooler days and chilly nights, the fashion - I'm obsessed with coats and I like wearing boots, the run up to Christmas, the frost etc. Not as much a fan of winter but autumn is the best

saveforthat · 10/08/2017 18:56

February is not spring. The first day of spring is in March

ShowMePotatoSalad · 10/08/2017 18:57

Autumn is a lovely season, but then they all are in their own way.

IdentifiesAsASloth · 10/08/2017 18:57

Yanbu. I love autumn!
Big coats, scarves, comfy boots ❤️

Auchan · 10/08/2017 18:59

Commonsense we use the old Celtic calendar. It's always confusing for non Irish folks. Grin

I love Autumn. Can't wait for boots and chunky scarves.

NoWordForFluffy · 10/08/2017 19:00

I love autumn too. The crispness and the colours make it my favourite season!

ClarkWGriswold · 10/08/2017 19:01

I absolutely love autumn. I love the nights drawing in, cooler weather, autumn clothing, events to look forward to; Halloween, bonfire night and then the countdown to Christmas. Yep I'm with with you all the way OP!

Decaffstilltastesweird · 10/08/2017 19:02

Yanbu. Autumn and Spring are my favourites.

CommonSenseIsNotAllThatCommon · 10/08/2017 19:02

Well I never realised that we use a Gaelic calender in Ireland. So I'm wrong for here and right for home Wink

CarolinePenvenen · 10/08/2017 19:04

Love love love autumn. This ‘summer’ is my favourite summer for years and years. I love cosy and blankets and hot drinks and scarves. Can’t wait for the 🍁🍂 to fall and the air to get smoky and the lovely dark evenings...
