it's the most wonderful time of the year!

You can feel it in the air, you can see the preparation in the shops, boots are coming out of hiding, scarves are swishing their way back onto necks, umbrellas are peeking out of cupboards, coats are edging themselves slowly out of wardrobes, extra blankets are making their way onto beds...

Winter is coming!

A lot of people don't like Winter because it is too cold and wet, and because the lack of sunshine can be depressing. But in the gorgeous city of Perth, we are much blessed by mild Winters - not too cold, just enough wet, and still more than average sunshine - which makes it much easier to love.

This morning was 6 degrees and man was it hard to get out of my warm bed. The only thing that made it easier was knowing the sooner I could get into my warm winter clothes, the sooner I would be nice and warm again. It was pretty hard to find something to wear amongst the mostly summery clothing, and I was reminded of the need to make space in my wardrobe to re-introduce winter clothes to the daily clothing rotation.

I feel a clothes-swap coming round the corner really soon...
