Interesting Facts about October

October has knocked on the door, are you ready for some fun? We believe that October is the best month of the year, and here are the reasons why. #1: October is the best month to stay in the UK. Because October weather is usually warm and dry, the average temperature is 12 ͦ C, that’s 4 ͦ C cooler than in September. Besides, who doesn’t love watching leaves changing hue in an autumn afternoon like in a romantic movie? #2: You can practically reverse time in October! In the UK, the clock is reset to one hour ahead of standard time when summer starts, and back to normal time when winter starts. So at 2.am on October 28 this year, you can see the clock jump back to 1.am like magic! And that means you will have one extra hour of sleep, isn’t it great? #3: Some of the most popular events in the UK’s social calendar happen in October. From Oktoberfest to Halloween, you can always find a reason to be out and socialise throughout October. The high density of social events in a month could be attributed to the pleasant weather, and because this is the last month of autumn, people will definitely try to enjoy themselves before winter sweeps through. We at Oriental Mart wish you the most of fun throughout the month, and enjoy wonderful autumn weather while it lasts!
