    actually, here in Adelaide, it's cold and damp - not summer, definitely not like you poor sods on the east coast, but that's one of the reasons we live here.

    Here was I thinking that the 'Big smokey bit in the middle of S.A. was Whyalla!'
    Adelaide ain't big, and it certainly ain't smokey either.

    I was thinking Marree or Mungerannie and thought you were confusing the dust for smoke. But then I figured it was Moomba.

    Ahhhhhhh I will be up that way soon on holidays - can't wait.

    I just love this weather, put your dirty washing on the line and it's washed and dried in an hour, see what today holds.
    At the moment our 2 acre ornamental lake is reducing (we didn't have one two days ago) as the drains empty slower than the precipitation we had.
