Bloody Winter...

Damn. Not only do we have the ninth frost in a row this morning (-1.7C), we have fog as well. I can just make out the house across the road and that's about it. Guess Serafina stays in the shed today....bloody winter! What the hell happened to global warming then? Bastards!
We should petition the gubbermint to have winter banned - just like smacking ya kids...

I am making an early morning trip down your way on Tuesday, it would be wonderful if you could arrange for there to be no fog for me. I have to negotiate my way to my daughters new house. Nothing worse than attempting to find somewhere you have never been when you cant read the road signs. I saw Hamilton on the weather this morning and cringed.

Something not very nice about coming over the brow of the Bombays and not being able to tell where the land finishes and the sky starts.

Forsty mornings and sunny days is better than non-stop rain.

the thing that pisses me off about winter isnt the frost or cold, its all the bloody grit that gets spread all over the road.

Frosty mornings with fog do not equal sunny days - not in the Tron they don't anyway...more likely cloud cover all day and a maximum temp of around 8C if we are really lucky...must be different in Matamata huh..?
