Global Warming And Nigel Kennedy Plays Vivaldi’s Two Sesaons
FREE in today’s Mail on Sunday, a CD of Nigel Kennedy playing Vivaldi’s Four Seasons.
How we grow nostalgic for those halcyon days when four seasons made a year.
As the Mail noted: “Designers and fashion experts fear the increasingly unpredictable weather could see the back of the industry’s traditional, seasonal collections…
British designer Katherine Hamnett said: “The entire clothing industry is upside-down right now and has been for some time. “We have bikinis being sold in January, and fur coats beign sold in August. It’s bonkers.”
Reports the Telegraph: “Traditional seasons ‘no longer exist’.”
Play up Nigel. Those were the days, my friend…

My sister had a CD of Nigel Kennedy playing the Four Seasons. So did all her friends. Why??? What was happening back then that a classical CD would become a craze???
And we don’t have seasons anymore. Baby birds are born as early as January these days - we had 3 die in our back garden and I had to rescue 6 of them and take them to a wildlife centre.

As far as fashion is concerned, there is but one season. The silly season.
Baby birds, Karen? If you’d waited a little longer, four and twenty make a lovely pie.
