Here we have Christmas card scenic views with frost on frost and wisps of fog. And yep, it's rather cold. But with a surreal calm. The air is almost too heavy for even a breeze. And there's lots to do despite the lack of temperature! See new freedom: Mageia Linux Take a look for yourself: Linux Format The Future is what We all make IT (GPLv3) |

Winning on a sunny Sunday morning after a 10C (felt like 9C) start here with a windy 26C being expected. Anyhow I've said g'day to Dog and tended my veggies (which I'll have to do a bit of this week as they reckon that it's going to get very hot here) so I reckon that it's time for my 2nd coffee break of the morning. Cheers. |

After almost 4hrs out in the yard enjoying the sunshine catching up on things I started getting too hot as the temp reaches 23C (feels like 20C), but for most of it I was protected from that cooling breeze that should soon turn into a wind, so now I'm ready for a beer or 3. Cheers. |

Just reading the last couple of days posts. Just what you need Martin. Salad fixings on the way. Just read Wiggo’s frozen post. Hope for a full recovery and no permanent shrinkage or damage to the rest of it. ![]() ![]() |

....Just read Wiggo’s frozen post. Hope for a full recovery and no permanent shrinkage or damage to the rest of it.Yes, he might want to invest in some of these next time. ;-) Anyhow I've had enough of outside for a while and a spinal reset sounds like a really good idea about now. Cheers. |

We made it to a steamy and windy 26C (felt like 22C) here today when some clouds turned up to stop it from getting any warmer. Anyhow I might get back into doing a bit more metalwork tomorrow, though how long I last outside will be another story as 28C is expected. Cheers. |

Thanks for the airdrop! That sneaked in just before the freezing fog rolled over... Yum!! Meanwhile, I made my escape and have safely returned to the land of healthy food. My escape was under cover of darkness and frost, late last night/morning, and just as the snow rolled in... Ideal weather for clearing off all the other idiots off the roads! I've a few days to go healthy again before next time... I'm definitely packing a few extra supplies! ... And too many of the people over there really are worryingly not healthy. And sad or zombied or slow-motion slow with it. Depressingly incredible. And absolutely zero interest in enjoying a stonkin' good hot Indian curry or anything even remotely healthy... There's far too many super-sugar plastic poisoned fizzy drinks over there to blow their brains out... Hey ho! Back to a healthy new world, beers and debrief, and put-the-world-rights comes later. No little bits of snow is going to stop progress! (Regardless of the farce claimed on the news...) Enjoy!!

We got off to a 12C (felt like 11C) start today with 28C expected and we're already up to 16C (feels like 15C). Anyhow I just brought the bin in so I'll get a 2nd coffee in before I head outside to see what I can get up to before it gets too warm out there. Cheers. |

I can see myself building a carport at the front of my shed soon as my victims are all ready waiting out there for Mr. Angle Grinder and myself, but out there where I need to work it's already it's 30C even though it's a steamy 21C in the shade and there's none of that around that usable ATM. :-( Anyhow I'll just enjoy my 3rd coffee break of the morning before dragging out the vac and give the car a clean out instead. It's picked up plenty of dirt (was mud), dust, grass, grass seeds and stones over the last few months. Cheers. |

I can beat yer there with one up at a cool 0 deg C... We're lost under a freezing wet twilight grey with a mixed up sodden mess of all of fog, mist, freezing drizzle, snow, ice, water, and of course lots of mud. I have full sympathies for the poor sods sticking it out in that lot in whatever WWI trenches for our ongoing WWIII... Stay warm! (And for a complete insignificance, no surprise we've got the latest excuses from our prevaricating 'articulate' feeble numbskull...)

Winning on a clear road trip Tuesday morning that kicked off here at 14C (felt like 13C) while 29C is expected, though where I'm heading is looking to get to 31C. Anyhow it's time for a coffee. Cheers. |

... Oh what a strange day... Plans?... Yes we have them. Although on occasion, such plans can become abandoned before even the first step... And then all the rest becomes random ad-lib... All good fun! See new freedom: Mageia Linux Take a look for yourself: Linux Format The Future is what We all make IT (GPLv3) |

As the temp here makes it to 17C I'm about to leave in the direction of more heat and hopefully I'll be back for a few driver revivers in 4hrs. Cheers. |
