Dave,
Well, there have been reports of snow in Hobart recently. Fine weather for
penguins I guess.
As for NewSouthbloodyWales, what can you say about a state whose Summer
solstice temps run (from memory of tonight's weather) from 5 degrees
(centigrade, that is) to over 40 degrees?
I'm looking forward to winter in Taipei where I'll be from Christmas Day for
a fortnight. Quite a nice 11 to 19, centigrade, range but packing the
thermals just in case.
Hope you've got some good heating.
Cheers,
Jill
P.S. I liked the 'slow fucks' - in yr pome that is. And 'burnt' and hurt' in
the third line. Good one - but I agree with Peter about some of the commas
but, then, I'm trying to wipe them out of my own work so am biased.
