    John, careful what you wish for. The temp shown for Sydney is on the coast. I am just west of Sydney and it will be low to mid 30C all week. We all sound like winging poms at the moment

If he gets it without working for it; he's a parasite; and if he accumulates it after a life time of hard work, people call him a fool who never got anything out of life."

    If 41 and a stinking hot northern wind is lucky, I can do with less luck.

    It is bloody beautiful up here in the hills (mountains) of Far North Queensland.

    Hasn't been over 30° for months & we have had almost 20 inches of rain since Christmas.

    Tropical rain is not cold, just wet.

    Don't know if I was lucky today, like Big Shed wrote, we hit over 40º and I had timber moving all over the place on me.

    Still rather be hot than a Pom having to put up with a runny nose and cold.



    Give me humidity any day, not that we have it down here, but when I was back home in Brisbane the fuzz on my mug was silky soft, come back down here to no humidity and dry heat and it's like wire again.
    I make things, I just take a long time.
