I’m probably fondest of autumn, but I really like spring and winter both.(I seem to enjoy a lot of songs relating to the cooler seasons, even though they’re sometimes a bit melancholy. Some of my favourite songs are “Forever Autumn”, “Hazy Shade of Winter” and “California Dreamin'”. Gee, that’ll make me sound old – but those were written when I was quite young; I got to like them later.)Summer here is too hot for me – I don’t do well in hot weather.And winter here is not a “dead season” – most native plants don’t lose their leaves. It doesn’t get cold enough to snow; you’re lucky if you even get a hint of frost on the very coldest mornings.

I wouldn’t dream of arguing with your seasonal aesthetic. There is something in us that resonates with certain sounds, patterns, rhythms, smells, colors…Me, I’m a Fall guy. No pun intended. And I’m pretty fond of winter. Gives me a kick, riding my bike when most people complain about walking to the car.Summer’s too frakkin’ hot. I don’t dissipate heat very well.

“That means winter’s coming, with its short, gray days and its icy rain. The rare bit of snow we get here will look pretty dusting the trees, granted – but only so long as I don’t have to drive in it. People in this city lose their minds when there’s a snowflake or two on the road.”When did you move to the UK? We’ve had rain all summer so it won’t be too much of a change. If anything, it’ll be an improvement when its cold enough to wear a real coat.

I’m a spring darling myself. There’s something about the first day you go out without a coat that’s liberating and re-energizing.

Come to Australia, were just starting spring here, and as I won a HUGE meat tray at the Pub tonight I have more than enough for a BBQ or two :-)I think we even have a bottle of Mezcal somewhere :-)
