Düsterer Abend

...is "gloomy evening" in German. The evenings begin earlier day by day, and the darkness is sometimes almost overwhelming in the poor street lightning here. Add heaps of fallen leaves in wonderful colours and drizzling rain, and the autumnal feeling is guaranteed. Time to cook some hot peppermint tea, huddle under a blanket and put on some warm socks. And listen to some dark, intense autumn music.
