Title: G'day from down under
Post by: bubba zanetti on August 27, 2007, 01:11:20 AM
Just wanted to say hi to all you folk on the top half of the world.

Things down here are just dandy, it'll be spring in a few days, the days are getting longer and warmer. Last Saturday at my son's football carnival we all managed to get sun burnt, and tonight on my walk I wore shorts and t-shirt.  :cheers:

Hottest Winter day in 12 years I think they said.  :thumb:

I'm glad we don't get high humidity here, that I couldn't put up with, it would have been low to mid 70's here over the weekend, which isn't too bad for the last week of winter.

Galahs, just expect a cold change to come through in a few weeks to bring us back to reality.  :laugh: :laugh:

I wasn't trying to get into a pissing contest about who has the coldest winters, cause no one likes the yellow snow.  :laugh:

I just wanted to stir you northern folk that we are heading into spring and you guys into autumn, plus I was shocked at getting sunburnt in winter.  :thumb:

I'm not stealing them, I'm only borrowing them. You can have them back after the 22 of December.  :laugh:
