I first bought this album in December of '81.The B-side This Jungle always reminds me of summer though.

Just be thankful it's not a "30th Anniversary Edition" otherwise we'd have another 3 years to wait!
Close enough. The Garden was originally released on 25th September 1981.

But, but that for me is the beginning of the best time of year. In recent years (since 1981...?) October has often been warmer and brighter than July. My annual holiday - always taken in the UK - is now almost always the October half term.
All the colours look brighter when then air has a crisp edge to it.

I really meant to say the forthcoming reissue, it would have been nice to have had it's return in the summertime, (though, wheres the summer gone?)

I think when I bought the original it was most likely at end of September, or beginning of October, as I was just starting a new term at Poly’.

When I lived in London, (some time ago), I’d definitely agree about a mild October, you can sometimes have the most unexpected clear blue, warm day there,
but here in Edinburgh its likely to be just as cold and grey as the summers now often are! smile

I pre-ordered Glimmer from Asda(!) a while back, for £5.43 including delivery! That is most definitely not a purchase strategy I could ever have predicted. laugh
