Wow. We had a huge thunderstorm last night. At times there was almost constant thunder and lightning.

Another dry day, albeit windy. Our week in Nethy Bridge at the beginning of October was horribly cold and wet but since we returned home we’ve had a very pleasant few weeks, dry, relatively mild, and the autumn colours have been fabulous. Looks set to continue into next week at least, although I think by then that the autumn colours will be mostly on the ground.

They officially announced the start of the cool season here a couple of days ago.
They've now backtracked - still lots of rain around, and very hot, so the cool season now postponed for maybe another couple of weeks.
Why can't the pesky weather here listen to the powers that be
Speaking of showers, got drenched in pigeon sh*t just up the road at the start of my morning walk today.
Had to go home and get cleaned up - you'd think it was an ostrich up on the cables that took aim at me, I was drenched in the stuff

18C at 0600hrs on October 31 anywhere in Canada is just plain weird.
when I was a kid we often had snow by this time of year, sometimes several feet of it.
those who still deny global warming can come and discuss it over coffee on my front porch this morning

You don;t need somewhere like that to see it
I used to live on the North Wales Coast
The A55 road goes along the coast and low lying coastal hill to get to where I used to live
When I started going there (late 1990s) then you could see snow on top of the hills well before Christmas
it would appear in cold weather and then melt
then re-appear and melt
and eventually it would appear and stay until Spring - snow level would wander up and down a bit but never reach the tops
By the time I left ( 2010 and a bit) it had not stayed on the hill tops for quite a few years - still appeared on the tops but always melted within a few days

Is he/she a Cairn Terrier? I might've asked you before, so apologies if I have.
Don’t apologise…..
You’re 100% correct ! Full Cairn Terrier 🐾 Going back to another thread (And me never having watched much TV) - it’s the same breed as Toto in the Wizard of Oz I’m told….
She was reasonably hard to find. A dying breed so to speak (?) And at her puppy classes all the instructors said they couldn’t remember the last time they saw one. They all also said it made a nice change to have one the class as normally every dog breed present ended in “doodle”…..
She is a truly wonderful dog: fun, energetic, oh so clever, always happy, loves company, barely sheds any hair blah blah.

Lovely doggie!
and hardly moults??
wow - I used to have an Alsatian - GSD for the modernists - who used to shed more that her own body weight and volume - by a factor of about 1000 - twice a year
so if I was allowed a dog (wife has allergies) then I would but Cairn on the list

Thankyou 🙏
We had a West Highland Terrier previously. Purchased after much research - some of that around moulting. Which they barely did…..
I have to say - (Maybe we’ve struck lucky; or maybe it’s because she’s still only 11 months) but Macy is even better. Both myself and my wife aren’t the biggest ever participants in the hoovering department. Yet you’d hardly know we owned a dog…..

WHen I had mine I was busy at work once and decided to leave hoovering for a day once while she was moulting
after 24 hours of no hoovering the red carpet has mostly disappeared under a layer of hair
I could have literally spend all day brushing her and still got loads more hair off
no idea how she moulted soooo much and didn't end up bald!!!

10C with 45kph winds, weird but pretty good for November in Canada.

So warm and sunny, I'm in short sleeves here. It may be colder outside: my main windows face south, so even winter sun warms the flat up.

Indifferent, overcast, but not cold. Smart money is 50% for rain later.

Grey and still here. I have not been outside, so I do not know how mild or not it is.
