Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Beautiful photos .
Spring and autumn are my favourite seasons .

These are 2 photos I took of Hagg Lodge last autumn .

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

No, it leads onto winter and I haven't got over the wet Summer with the hose pipe ban.

Haslingden Old Road near the Ski Slope

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

So, when did you ever use a hose pipe then ? :confused:

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

The photographs are beautiful, but I'm with you.

I really dislike autumn.

If the year's a life cycle, this is the time we are sat in an old folks home, awaiting...

On a cheerier note, roll on the first green shoots of new life, in spring.

:)

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Good pic's :D

I dont dislike any season, like it when spring starts as it means summer!! (if we are lucky enough to get one!! :rolleyes:) and like Autumn as it means a fresh change and cozy nights in!!

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

The view from my kitchen window is always superb at this time of year, all the various colours on the leaf shedding trees

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Great pictures Atarah.If there is any justice in the world, you'll win a prize for those pictures.

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Last summer, (up untill the hose pipe ban), the summer before that, the summer before that, the summer before that, the summer before that...

Do you see a pattern emerging or shall I continue? Hmm yes, bit slow on the uptake aren't you? I'll continue...

the summer before that, the summer before that, the summer before that, the summer before that, the summer before that, the summer before that, the summer before that, the summer before that, the summer before that, the summer before that, the summer before that, the summer before that, the summer before that, the summer before that, the summer before that, the summer before that.

I may only have a backyard but there is always something growing in it, even if it's only mould on the socks that are taking 3 weeks to dry due to our wonderful Summers.
;)

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

You have only been using a hose-pipe for 21 years Less????? :confused:

Always thought you were alot older than that!!!!!!!!! ;):p:p:p:D

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

I only wanted to make a point, I didn't want to be accused by my tormenter of over stating it!;)

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

:Banane06::Banane06::Banane06: Less bit the bait!!!!! Yeeeeeaaaaaahhhhh!!!! Only messing :D;)

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

What lovely pictures,bring back memories.I don't remember the lodge being so heavily wooded.I don't remember it being called Hagg Lodge either! When did it get that name? I spent all my young life living opposite it and never knew it as that. In looking up the name I found an old thread(2005) about what has happened to Milnshaw and Gatty parks-how sad, Milnshaw in particular was beautiful when I was a boy, paddled in those ponds and played cowboys and indians in the Lodge wood many times.
I remember firing marbles using a firework in a bicycle pump across the Hyndburn to see it splash in the lodge!

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Where katex is concerned, I always have and always will bite the bait, there is something about her little nagging ways that remind me of my ex, perhaps it's her neck size? I'm sure it would fit easily between my fingers and applied a little pressure! (Only joking Kate I find you irrisitable, and would apply a great deal of pressure).:eek:

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

was always called haggs lodge when i was kid gordon, blowed if i know why.:confused: unless was cos of some of those that used to frequent it. lol

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

I'm sure you're right, cashman, I can't remember what happened to my memory!

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Eeew .. isn't that some sort of sex game ?.. :D

I merely asked why the hose pipe bothered you so deeply, seeing as you never used one. Besides ... no great hardship to anyone really .. not essential to our daily living ... might have reason to grumble if they hadn't imposed it and affected your monthly bath.:)

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Anyway, I love Autumn too and your pictures, Atarah; in fact all our seasons. Wouldn't live in a hot country with their dusty roads and very little colour and extra insect life.

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

I do love autumn actually.

It signifies the end of very long days landscaping and the start of finishing work at 5pm. Standing by the fire with a pint of ale at the end of a chilly day, hot pans of soup on the stove, Christmas not far away....

It's a bit damp outside but it makes you appreciate being inside all the more.

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

DO KEEP UP!
I've already told you I do use one, My God, talk about a dumb Blonde, (even if by now you should have greyed gracefully).

You have neither witnessed nor assisted in my ablutions, so please do not speculate how or with what I manage a purer body than your Rather disparagingly evil and rather limited little mind.:D

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Less if I've told you once I've told you a Million times don't exaggerate :D

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

It's a great time of year: sweet chestnuts and mushrooms to eat - cooler weather and cozy dark nights! I love it!


Can't see the photos by the way!

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Autumn is a wonderful time if you want to see colour......You don't need to go to New England(but that didn't stop me wanting to).....but from a practical sense I hate the Autumn.......from September I can feel the gnaw of the shorter days.......I get carb cravings and want to do nothing much other than sleep, I get prickly and bad tempered........I am convinced that I was a bear in a previous existence.

The lack of daylight affects me.
Roll on March.

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

I live at tree top height and have big trees back and front.
When the leaves fall I get a distance view again.

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

I do enjoy the Autumn, here is the view out the kitchen window, plus a couple of other Autumn themed pics.

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

I agree entirely.

Well except for the gloomy moods.

I remain as sunny, jolly, and carefree, as I do throughout the other seasons of the year.

:D

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

By the way, don't ever move to Scotland.

I was forever being called by staff, saying they weren't coming in because of SAD.

Hello!

Winter days being three hours, seven minutes long, are the price you pay for having twenty hours of daylight in June.

:D

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Hate it...hate the dark, hate the cold, hate the damp, hate the masses of soggy leaves under your feet, hate everything about it.

Give me 90 degrees in the shade, a cold beer in my hand and a blue sparkling sea...all year round. :cool:

Nice pics though.

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Good point re: the leaves underfoot.

They might be prettily coloured, but many of 'em cover a nice, squashy, freshly deposited, dog's egg.

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Should have gone to Spec Savers:D

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

So you want to move Stanley abroad then Wyn:D

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

I think their defence has already moved abroad somewhere, Jay. They certainly don't seem to be around at any of the matches I've been to recently. :rolleyes:

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Huston we have a problem:eek::eek::D

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Are you a squirrel?

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Ha ha ha - Jaysay posting no 31 and Yerself posting no 35, you both made me chuckle to myself.

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Todmorden this morning

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

It,s when that wight stuff come,s you start worrying.

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Yes I do love fall ... best time of the year .... feet up in front of my fire, hockey on tv every nite. I know winter is close; we have already had some flurries, and a nasty snow squall last weekend. But, bring it on; don't suffer through winter ... put on skates, snow shoes, cross country skis and get out and enjoy it.:dancedog:

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

I'll thank you not to show pics of Todmorden any morning wadey:D

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Put on skates, snow shoes and cross country skis. It's good job you're brought up in Clayton Eric, and all that practicing getting up Whalley Rd in foot of snow.

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Ah yes, the sixties in July...

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Atarah, a lady in your line of employment should realise it's not Autumn but 'Leaf Fall Season'.;)

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Snow shoes, eh? Do they do them in Red with stiletto heels ?

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Mmm do you suffer from SAD = Seasonal Affective Disorder!

It's quieter in the Autumn and Winter - less kids out shouting in the streets, less noise from cars, sleep better and longer - surely if you were a bear in previous life you'd love autumn/winter as it would mean you'd be able to hybernate and chillout! :dancedog:

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Yes, I do have seasonal affective disorder.......and though I have this, I don't actually get depressed, just tired, lethargic and hungry.

When I say I was a bear in a previous existence...what I mean by that is......I need to hibernate to miss the damp, the dark and the gloom.
Bears don't get SAD because they sleep through the winter....alas my life does not allow me that luxury.:)

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

One good thing about autumn, flies buzz off, and you can open your windows, without fear one might be dancing on a defrosting pork chop, after earlier dancing on a freshly laid dog's egg, before entering your home.

:D

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

yep totally agree with you, they were murder this summer at my house, and it was murder when I got them the lil buggers!!! :dflam:

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Sure you can get them like that ... they go well with sealskin lingerie trimmed with wolverine fur;):D But it has to be wolverine, 'cause it doesn't freeze however steamy and sweaty it gets:eek:

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Well Eric that should suit Kate to a tee then:D:D

Re: Dont you just love Autumn
 

Yeah we all love autumn! Like today has been a fantastic autumn day, rain, wind, blocked drains with leaves ,floods who could ask for a better.:rolleyes::D
