This year, more than any other, I find myself lamenting the loss of Summer. The reason is obvious. After spending a great deal of money, time and hard work on making our roof deck pretty, it feels as though it's time is almost over, the fleeting two months of Sunshine gone and the chance to barbecue relegated to the narrow time slot of 7 - 8pm. I've always loved the colour and vibrancy of Autumn, but this year it really seems to have a brisk air of finality about it. Friends keep asking us for one more roof top party and we would be happy to oblige if the weather would.
