pesky1972 5,639 Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 Is it me or does every think seem early this year? From farmers crops of maize to black berries I also have 5 walnut trees in my garden & there not far off aswell ?? Definitely felt like Autumn over the last week or so. Brambles are hanging everywhere..., think they're probably 2-3 weeks earlier than last year. Hopefully get a couple more warm weeks before it really kicks in. Can't complain though, it's been a good summer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
