I hate to say this whilst it is such a lovely day here but I have loads of berries on my holly bush.

I also mentioned something similar on the Scottish thread Phyll

The trees and foliage in my part of the UK are changing colour rapidly and today I was watching some yellow and red leaves fall from a tree.

Meanwhile, "summer bulbs" that I planted in pots in May, have only now decided to produce their flowerheads ?

After last winter, I hope you're wrong.

Here's a quote which unfortunately agrees with you :-0

A glance at Winter
Obviously we're some way off from winter at this stage with plenty of time for change but the CFS2 model we use is currently giving an ongoing strong signal for northern blocking to be prominent this winter, meaning another cold winter season is a possibility - it must be stressed that it's all very low confidence at this range though..
