The only time I've ever seen snow is on Bondi Beach smiley - laugh

They trucked it in years ago for a ski resort promotion - I wasn't impressed.

I decided that if it snowed I might have to wear real shoes - and socks smiley - yikes

I'll pass ....

SNORK!smiley - smileysmiley - laugh

Never seen snow!!! Come on over! In fairness, it looks lovely but that's about it..Like a tiger looks lovely. Good to look at but that's where the love stops.smiley - sadface

I've just come in from topping up the bird feeder and clocked the thermometer..OUCH! Minus 2. God only knows what it went down to last night but parts of the country were down to Minus 10.

I don't like the cold. Sets the ole Arthy off and my 'storm thumbs'smiley - laugh

At the moment it's 10pm and the temp is a balmy 26C - just a sheet on the bed tonight - too hot for anything else smiley - biggrin

Tomorrow they are predicting a top temp of 35C - come over ... the warmth will do you good, unless you decide to travel on one of our buses, then you will have hot and sweaty all around smiley - laugh Most of them are air conditioned - unfortunately it always seems to be the one that I just missed smiley - grr

It all depends .... 35C if it's a dry heat is fine but a muggy 26C can drive you mad!! It's also ok if there's a bit of a breeze but those hot, muggy, still days (or worse still, nights) can be unbearable.

I must say I prefer the colder weather - at least you can rug up and get warm, but without the air con I just melt when it's hot.

I am off to bed now - it's warm but should be ok for sleeping ....

G'night - stay warm smiley - biggrin

Hi Chum!

We've had some bad weather....apparently...snow!

THe 'news' is blowing it up to be something....It's nothing!

we don't get bad weather these days...and this is the worst for 18 years!

The last badie was in 87....21 inches drifting to 5 feet.

This load is rubbish! And I'm not so old!

It started yesterday and it's thawing fast already!

We're going soft here!...I know I'm the softest of the soft..but seroiusly Feisor..this is nothing!"smiley - sadface

I am going off the news...they try to make something of nothing and then try to destroy careers along the way

Why have the roads closed...they didn't

Why weren't you prepared..we get this shit or less..every twenty years.

Some monkey was interviewed tonight...and he said..they don't have these problems in Canada...What a spanker!!!!

Feisor - -0- Generix I made it back - sortof ...

Yeah, been reading about it.

We've had weather problems too - Melbourne and Adelaide have had a heatwave of 40C plus - bushfires, power outages, deaths.

It always amazes me how short our memories can be - and the memories of the authorities. Everyone says "I can't remember the weather being like this!" - I can smiley - laugh

Stay warm and safe - I'll try to stay cool and safe smiley - ok

I'm fine - we are a long way away from the fires - but, as I said elsewhere - the whole country is traumatised.

It is so kind of people so far away to donate - people here are doing what they can, giving blood, making donations, supporting friends.

The one positive thing about these disasters is that it brings out the best in people and it certainly makes you appreciate the important things in life, like family and friends. smiley - hug

Ivan, who was in Canberra during their fires has a thread that you might get something from at F1697644?thread=6308208&
