Second of all, let me tell you this morning I realised that summer is well and truly over.
It wasn't the chill in the air as I was waiting at the bus stop, though, it was chilly.

It wasn't the leaves starting to fall off the trees, though, they are falling.
It was the sight of a very nervous 11/12/13year old (roughly) boy heading off to his first day in secondary school in his brand new uniform. The trousers were about six inches too long and and he desperately needed a belt to help keep them up. The sleeves of the jumper were also about six inches too long and he had a hard time locating his hands when trying to grip the hand rail going up the stairs. His bag was too big and heavy and his shoes and hair were just so, so, shiny.
Obviously the uniform was bought to last until he leaves school!!
I'll give the shiny new uniform and shoes a couple of weeks...
But you know what the first sighting of the school uniform means...no more pleasant, quiet, comfortable, quick journeys into work.
The TRAFFIC is back aaaaarrrrrggggghhhhh!!!!!!
Aww, you have to feel for the poor things, they have no idea what to expect! even if they are going to clogg up the roads and add hours to our commutes:)
