Happy midwinter/midsummer everybody!

[The Monkey]

Today it's the darkest day on the northern hemisphere, and the lightest on the southern. The sun is now in zenith at the Tropic of Capricorn. So from now on it will just be getting lighter and lighter/darker and darker.

Midsummer here now.

T'was a chilly, chilly day.

I so hate Melbourne.

chilly :O What was the temperature? The river was frozen here.

 

[Brian Damage]

I couldn't wear my shorts.

That's highly unusual for an Aussie Summer.

 

[Farrowlesparrow]

Maybe its the end of the world :O

I suggest you move to New Zealand and find Gandalf. Its your only hope really.

My mothers going to Cairns for 3 weeks on the 24th. It's really humid over there, so I feel sad for her. Meanwhile we might be moving to Cairns around April and I don't think I'm going to enjoy that.

It's one of those climates in which that in winter you can be perfectly warm in shirt and shorts.

 

[Brian Damage]

That's like Paraburdoo was. Except I bet Cairns has fewer flies.
