Then there is Hallow'een. It is getting more and more and more popular in the UK - by my favourite bit by far is the Jack'o'lantern carving. |

A traditional London event in the late Autumn is the Lord Mayor's Show. The Lord Mayor isn't the elected head of the London governing authority - but rather the figure head of the 'Square Mile' the oldest and most historic part of London - think Dick Whittington and you're getting there!

And now (for the 5th year) so it is a new tradition - NFL comes to Wembley. Being English both the Better-Half and I reserve the right to support several teams - and we've both been lucky enough to see a team of ours play; my Giants and his 49'ers.

Just to cheer things up the clocks go back. I love waking up in daylight and long summer evenings - I hate Autumn/Winter when it's dark the whole time you're up and about. |

And back to sport again... it wouldn't be that time of year without the Fall Classic. Always a tense time in our house split in the AL East between Red Sox and Yankees; but we'll watch whoever is playing!Although preferably without the feline profile included (Casper is a very sports orientated cat!).
