For many people autumn is the best time of year or at least the most beautiful.
Yes, it can be a bit cold and wet but when the weather plays ball you get wonderful, crisp days as the leaves begin to change colour.
You'd be hard pressed to find a better example than this shot from Starman in Bourne:

After a cold and frosty start this morning, we're in for a dry and mostly sunny afternoon though cloud will begin to creep in from the west as we head towards the evening.
The best of the sun will remain along the coast.

Earlier we told you about Sharon Singer, the postal worker who was attacked by a Doberman back in July.
Despite suffering injuries across her body and nerve damage, the dog wasn't destroyed.
Sharon went through several operations and is still feeling the effects months later.

Quote MessageWe were surprised by the unduly lenient sentence, that's an understatement really. In a case that resulted in such life-changing injuries we would have expected a destruction order and the person banned from owning dogs as well"

Earlier we told you about a new Charter of the Forest, laying out the future of woodland in the UK.
It's going on display in Lincoln because the city is home to one of two surviving copies of the original historical document.
But why is the original so significant?
Image source, Visit LincolnWell, it's the companion piece to Magna Carta.
Whereas Magna Carta helped changed the balance of power when it came to the monarchy and the rebel barons, the Charter of the Forest had a much bigger impact for the common people.
It re-established public access to land, external that had slowly been taken away since the time of William the Conqueror.
Quote MessageEvery freeman from henceforth, without danger shall make in his own wood, or on his land, or on his water, which he has within our forest, mills, springs, pools, marlpits, dykes, or earable ground, without enclosing that earable ground, so that it be not to the annoyance of any of his neighbours.

A postwoman who suffered horrific injuries in a dog attack has been speaking about her ordeal.
Sharon Singer was delivering mail to a house in Wrangle near Boston in July when two Dobermans appeared - one attacked her leaving her with serious injuries across her body.
The owner of the dogs - 49-year-old Julian Palfreyman - was ordered to pay £1,000 in compensation to Sharon and given a community order but the dog wasn't destroyed.

Quote MessageI like my job and it's something I'd like to return to but until I'm in that situation and face-to-face with a dog it's hard to say how I'd handle it. I'd just like to live how I did before.

To quote the Game of Thrones tagline, "Winter is coming" and it looks like someone has told the weather in Lincolnshire.
Quite a few of us will have been scraping the frost off our windscreens this morning, including some of our Weather Watchers with their cameras clamped in frozen fingers. Let's see what they've been up to...
First to Bassingham where demons+bedriven captured this misty start:
Bourne next, where Fennysky shot this tranquil scene - don't think we fancy a morning dip though:
Elsewhere in Bourne this Weather Watcher has the right idea - the joys of a crisp morning from the comfort of your own bedroom!
