Starting To Feel A Lot Like Autumn!

I've just got time for a quick blog tonight before I hit the sack; I have to be up bright an early tomorrow for work. This has really been a long exhausting weekend and an extremely busy time at work, as Portsmouth celebrates the 'Victorious Festival.' Roads are closed, there are queues of traffic and the weather is appallingly bad. On Friday the rain came down and it hasn't stopped since, despite a brief respite on Saturday. By all accounts the festival has been a complete washout as the south of England suffers from torrential rain and floods.

Living in Spain for the last few years, I haven't experienced the changing seasons, in the same way I do in the UK and am actually quite enjoying the transition into Autumn. After a prolonged heat wave, Britain is most definitely back to normal. For as long as I can remember August has been a terrible month weather wise and my first year back, living in Portsmouth is no exception.

It feels good to finally sit down and relax for a bit, something I haven't done much of recently. Tonight a few of my old college friends are going out for a impromptu reunion, which sadly I wont be able to attend, as much as I would have liked to. Weekends are a very busy period for me and I have little time to do anything else apart from work. I do not have the luxury of enjoying a Bank Holiday, but wish all those attending tonight my fondest wishes.

Whatever you did this weekend, I hope the weather didn't spoil your enjoyment too much!
