The journey into winter passes a number of the same milestones every year, and this is one of them - the day the kayaks which we keep at the back of the bay below the house are tied down.
One year we left it too late and a vicious gale from the northwest sent two of the kayaks cartwheeling across the beach into the waves. Fortunately, our neighbour saw it happen and alerted us, otherwise we might well have lost them.
Only 34 days 'till the days start drawing out again.
