Some people just have too much time on their hands.
I guess today was our longest day, downunder.

Longest day eh? Did you ever think that from now on you are going to lose daylight and approach WINTER? I notice that Monday's high in Perth is going to be + 34 C (+ 90 F). We don't sweat it here....Monday's low here is expected to be - 28 C (- 18 F) and expected high to be - 20 C (- 5 F). We can build snowmen, get plenty of fresh COOL air, and sit by a roaring fireplace while sipping adult beverages. Ah, the life of northern hemispheric people in December !

We don't sweat it here....

We will be sweating it here, no air con.
I will have some of those adult beverages though.
Cheers.

FROSTIE THE SAND MAN....
I AM DREAMING OF A SAND CHRISTMAS.........
OH PALM TREE...........
RUDOLPH THE RED NOSED DINGO.....


ANY OTHER IDEAS???
