September has passed us by in a flash and here we are at the start of yet another month! The weather through the first Autumn month was kind to us and it has been good to see so many anglers out on the banks making the most of this glorious time of the year. I couldn't help but notice while out delivering the September magazines how the leaves had taken on their Autumnal colourings so early, indeed the leaf fall had already begun! Even the blackberries seemed to be in fruit very early. I picked a large bowl of them in mid August! They are in the freezer waiting for Mrs Reed to put them in an apple crumble! Mrs Reed and I enjoyed a lovely week in Cornwall and it was nice to get away for a few days.
