How's your Sunday going?

It's windy and cloudy here but still a nice 22 deg.
Taking the kids to a movie later this afternoon. Should be good

What's everyone else up to?


Cheers all

Gary

Heading out into the backyard again to chop up some small trees that were cut down yesterday in preparation for a backyard redesign.

Gotta take it all to the tip later today.

A warm 30 but not near 40, which is great

Clear skies and 34 degrees today. Quite mild compared to the last week.

I've got plenty to do, just can't decide where to start. I think I'll have another coffee under the verandah and contemplate this.

Have a great day all.

That it is....yep, windier and rainier. I can remember when Cyclone Winifred back in 1987 was only about 150km from here and there were idiot windsurfers down at The Strand!!!!

I'll bet there'll be some down there today!!!!

Bloody beautiful it has been probably the first time in a week that I could actually go outside and stay there for longer than 10 minutes, after a week of above 43 degrees every day.

It is now a nice 26 and a light south easterly is blowing.
