I tend to go from a nice shade of light walnut to the deepest darkest depths of infernum if I get even the slightest amount of sun.
But you are berber, I'm assuming. You guys literally don't change colour. Got a berber ex-Moose friend here, the guy comes back from Morocca a slightly lighter tint of red. I go morocca, you can't see me at night.
I'm an extremely brown moroccan, who goes even darker when i tan. I mean for a Moroccan I'm just too brown, most people actually think I'm south american or mix raced, never guess I'm Moroccan lol, not even moroccans.
I get excited for the first few days of autumn, when there's a crispness in the air and cold chill brings anticipation of bonfire night - but then it just gets grim.
Yea, I do love that autumn start, reds and browns all over the park floor, and then as you said.............it's grim and it takes ages and ages and ages to go away.

Like Ishina said, concrete winters are depressing.
