| 499818 | 2006-11-18 11:01:00 | It was damp & chilly. It gave me a perfect excuse NOT to go rushing off somewhere high to see an iceberg in the distance.. Enough people are already doing it. And the TV pix are fascinating enough. Edit: Gee, what a wimp. What happened to my sense of adventure? Somebody must've flogged it... |

| 499819 | 2006-11-18 17:03:00 | We are terribly miserable under clear skies, hot temperatures and dry air for what is supposed to be our intro to Winter . . . it being Fall here and the temps are not where they are supposed to be . Should be cooler and windy with a hint of fireplace smoke in the nostrils, and leaves falling to the ground . Roses haven't been trimmed back for the frost and we can probably get a few more days of the blooms until the first freeze . Seems the seasonal changes aren't coming this year . Still under "Red Flag" fire and wind warnings, as the fire season has been extended for a few more weeks now . Football, American style, isn't the same when the players are afraid of heat prostration and dehydration . . . . when they should be instead worried about frostbite on their fingers and noses . Last year, fer'instance, we had snow in the local mountains and the ski season was off on a good base by this time . Ah! Well . . out to sunbathe for a while . . working on my tan in November . . . to beat all! |

Ah,nice to see you found time to paint,would you say your painting is reminiscent of Constable,or more Renoir? |

Oh Darn ! I suppose that's what comes of opting for the free weather scheme. |

| 499825 | 2006-11-19 00:25:00 | I'm good . Currently "checking my emails" for free in the State Library of Melbourne after giving "Mr Smith" (he who has new sunnies) the slip for the first time in nearly a week . He's been holding the leash pretty tight every time we pass an internet cafe but I've alleviated the withdrawal symptoms by giving the plastic card a good thrashing so it's not all bad . :thumbs: Right now it's a balmy 27 deg outside, quite a bit warmer than the 14 deg back home, so the visit to the market to get some tiger prawns and other goodies will be a quick one, then it's off down to the Waterfront for a wander around and some lunch . Half of the central city here is blocked off with the G8 (or whatever it is) summit but hopefully things will be back to normal again tomorrow . Uh oh, I've been spotted . . . time to go!! :eek: :xmouth: |
