It’s HALLOWEEN
Which, for the non-religious amongst us, is the absolute best holiday ever.
Which also means…Scary movies
Just find someone to cuddle up to, some popcorn and you’re all set for a scare-fest.
Oktoberfest
Just because you’re not in Germany, doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy a stein full of beer at your local pub - Lederhosen optional.
And did we mention…Pumpkins?
Pumpkin soup, pie, a pumpkin spiced latte - the possibilities are endless. Check out some of our favourite pumpkin recipes here.
The leaves start to change
Summer is officially out of fashion, and now the green of the leaves will begin to turn an array of orange, red and yellow.
That also means…crunchy leaves under foot
The ultimate Sunday afternoon activity.
It’s harvest time
So expect to see stacks of delicious produce line shelves, including apples, elderberries, pears, plums, raspberries and strawberries. Head to a pick your own farm to get these straight off the tree/bush.
It’s the perfect temperature
To quote Miss Congeniality ‘It’s not too hot, and it’s not too cold…all you need is a light jacket.’ Exactly.
Roasts finally make their return
BBQs? Bog off. It’s all about the Great British Roast from now until April. Thank goodness for that.
Open fires are in
And there’s not a lot better than sitting my a roaring log fire with a glass of red.
Dr Who is BACK
And we could not be more excited!
In fact, ALL AUTUMN TV is great
Get ready for catch up to become your new best friend.
The rugby is on
Which actually gives you three reasons to be excited, depending on your preference - hot men on the box, something to keep your partner quiet for an entire weekend, or constant entertainment if you're a sports fan.
You can play conkers
It’s conker season people, so time to crack out the vinegar.
You can wave goodbye to summer diets
If you were cutting back on the treats for summer, it’s time to get a winter layer on. It’s for insulation!
October, we're so happy to see you!
