Autumns arrived today along with all them leaves on the paths. Although its now dried out, it still looks lethal.

Leaves can get extremely slippy...

Have a read of the following quote from O2's story "That Moment" (http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=1077.0) sums it up pretty well  ;)

Quote
....You have been so absorbed with your run that looking down has not occurred to you and the stench of the rotting leaves has evaded your senses. The hoof, unable to find grip, scrabbles’ around, desperately trying to find a hold on the mass of the green-brown trap. As you start to register a problem the bock slips forward, the shin pressing up and the thigh down. You feel intense pressure then a sudden release. You are ok, until the pain hits, you cannot move, colour drained as you stay frozen. A break.

You just dont want that happening!
