Night has departed and autumn light slips in through curtain gaps. The house is washed with the new season and a chill wraps itself around peeking flesh. I rise, sure of a fine day, cheered by the prospect of a crisp blue September sky. Downstairs, I flick on the kettle, then open the window to let in some air and with it slips in a sense of change…a whiff of nature preparing.
