After 4 months had the first problem night in the hotel, not sure what happened but someone very drunk kicked off just before midnight, annoyingly I had just got off to sleep

I remember some chucking up in the foyer outside my room in the Travel Lodge in Rugby.

It didn't make for a restful night's sleep.

I'm a teapot.

You could still be me as a teapot.

Losing will to live.

Tedious livestreamed bollocks to watch this morning.

Thankfully it's a bit shorter than it's been in the past.

No doubt some of it will be communicated Yng Nghymraeg just to piss off the monoglot Welsh.

Losing will to live.

Did you ever have any?

Morning all. Sunny day here, but chilly dog walk this morning. Almost like Autumn.

Isn't it Autumn meteorogically? Or am I just thick and missed your sarcasm?

According to the Met Office: (When does Autumn start? Defining seasons | Met Office News Blog )

In meteorological terms, it’s fairly simple – each season is a three month period. So, Summer is June, July and August; Autumn is September, October and November, and so on.
Of course, this is fairly arbitrary, but provides a consistent basis for the Met Office, as the holder of the UK’s national weather and climate records, to calculate long term averages and provide seasonal climate summaries from year to year.
Mike Kendon, of the Met Office National Climate Information Centre, said: “Defining seasons in this way means we can compare weather from one season or year to the next. It also has the advantage that each season is roughly the same length, neatly dividing the year into four quarters.
“Looking at longer timescales, our recently updated 30-year averages can show us how ‘normal’ seasons are changing over time, giving us clues about trends in the UK’s climate.”


Astronomical definitions of seasons also exist – using the Earth’s position relative to the Sun as the cue for separating one season from another via equinoxes and solstices.
So the Summer begins around the Summer Solstice, when daylight hours are at their longest (around 21 June), and ends around the Equinox, when days and nights are of equal length (around 21 September, on 22 September this year). Thus astronomical Autumn begins, continuing until the Winter Solstice, when daylight hours are at their shortest (around 21 December), and so on. Astronomical seasons therefore are about three weeks behind the meteorological ones.

The BBC uses the astronomical definitions for their Springwatch/Autumnwatch programs, which really annoys some people who insist on meteorological ones. Then again, if you base the season on what is happening around you, rather than fixed calendar dates (the earth doesn't know what day it is), then Autumn starts when the oak leaves turn, which is a few weeks away yet.

Programme Manager is not in today, so contractors playing dare as to what time they can leave early to get home, someone left at 9:55 but will "work on the train"
