I love this time of year
the colours
the half full yet half empty feel
balanced

I thought I was Brum's finest :(

Since nearly all Australian native trees are "evergreen" and don't shed their leaves, we have to rely on imports to get the Autumn feeling.

Maybe you are like Goldfish and forget what you posted after 3 seconds?

That reminds me of one of my favorite jokes (clean one....I promise!).

An old man is sitting in his Doctor's office and the Doctor says, " We have done the tests and I am afraid I have two bad pieces of news."

"Okay Doc, I am ready. Tell me the first bit of bad news."

"You have incurable cancer!"

The old man starts howling and it take several minutes for him to calm down enough to ask what the second bit of bad news is.

"You have advanced Alzheimer's!"

The old man looks relieved and says, "Oh well, it could be worse. Thank God I don't have cancer!".

My parents neighbours have a eucalyptus, which being from down under doesn't shed it's leaves, so you can have the best of both worlds!!!
We have a lot of silver birch in the garden, no leaves in winter but lovely silver trunks and branches.

I like spring best, probably the promise of things to come. The time of year I dislike most is the part of winter after christmas, until the bulbs start flowering.

Eucalyptus is the best smell in the world.

Eucalysptus and honey lollies were a childhood favorite.

I wish the cold would kill my next door neighbours eucalyptus :roll:

Except for the trunk, none of it is actually in their garden any more, it leans right over into mine and I get all the mess! :evil:

Well it's certainly become autumnal now. Blowing a gale and raining. Good job those leaves havn't turned yet, otherwise I'd be looking at bare trees :wink: :(
