Summer Down Under actually starts in December, not September. September is the start of our Spring season. Although there are those who say we do not have seasons. just "hot" and "less hot", Aussies still like to have their calendar marked into four equal pieces, not two!

I'll pass that on to CP (she's having major computer problems at the mo; hence why you've got the other sister...)
Can't really explain more, as I have to get to college now (theorectically I should be on the tube right now, but it's far too cold outside )
Stay ,

Ooooh, stay indoors, there is nothing better than curling up under blankets with that feeling you really should be somewhere else (less warm...)
Contrary to what many people think, some parts of Australia do actually get cold enough to snow (and as far up as Katoomba, Bathurst, Orange and Lithgow in NSW). I have been in Scotland over winter and can vouch for the fact that the UK does not have a patent on sub zero temperatures. It's just that you are more likely to experience these during the day, whereas we get ours at night.
Have a lovely day at college if you do decide to brave the tube!

I did go to college today... nearly froze my proverbials clean off...
The weather is just so changeable, a couple of days ago, it was nice and warm!
Now I'm really knackered...

I just came back home to Sydney yesterday after a weekend in country NSW. Out there it was beatiful, sunny, warm and clear skies with a little wind to keep things cool. In Sydney it is raining, cold, and miserable. C'est la vie!
