I had a brilliant day. Sun. Got bought two coffees by different friends and got a puppy cuddle and a toddler cuddle (don't worry I know the puppy and the toddler). Had an amazing haul at the salvos - dishes to put under my pot plants, a denim jacket and a nice blazer for work, even a bloody calculator that I have needed for ages. Shopping done and food washed and away. Kitchen cleaned. I am ded.

Only dark spot was mould on the pizza base I was planning on cooking ...boo. having a wine and thinking about what to cook instead...

I love these autumn days.

I love autumn too

I grew up in the tropics where it's perfect 4 months of the year and a sauna hell the rest and I find autumn with its perfect days then four seasons magical even after all these years. Dark cold august can get in the bin but autumn 👌🏻

I am 100% of the same opinion. You're right, August is the worst - everyone's sick of it all by then - but I'd take Melbourne's 4 seasons any day over the tropical swamp I grew up in (shitty every month of the year). Autumn is my favourite season hands down. Days like today are just magic.
