Mentalechoes

i noticed tonight for the first time that the nights are getting longer, as the sun sets earlier in the evening. It didn’t seem that long ago that we Europeans were getting sunlight until 11pm, with a few brief hours of darkness before first light at 4.30am. Now though, slowly you can feel the change in the sunlight hours as the evenings draw to an end just that much quicker, and the night covers us with a steadily increasing length of blanket. There will be change of season upon us soon enough.

I’ve always been someone that has liked the changes of season. Truth be told, autumn is my favourite. I love the soft rustle of golden brown leaves as they fall from the trees onto your head as your ride you bike through the pathways of old Amsterdam. There is something old worldly that captures my imagination.

But no talk of autumn now, that time will come soon enough. For now, let’s enjoy the next month of summer and give it a good send off with a few drinks in hand!
Andy.
