    I agree with @nutcutlet ... autumn's coming  :)  Nothing to worry about.

    Don’t take too much notice of what you read on the internet, they all want to try and frighten you.
    I agree with Dove and Nut, just Autumn.

    I know, but the only place to ask for info is here surely, 😀 most of those sites are written by people that probably don’t even have a garden! if you google a headache they’ll tell you to get to the hospital straight away as it could be something sinister like your foot’s about to drop off. 😱😕
