Weather... & Tom's back yard update.
I know you are all interested to know what the weather is like over here… well it has only just this week got a bit of a chill in the air. Most of October and November have been much milder than usual so autumn hasn’t been as spectacular as we were hoping, there has been plenty of rain but it’s never dampened our excursions or wet us too much and our little home is cosy with double glazing and central heating. I’ve only just bought a waterproof coat.
When we arrived in September it was far too hot for us although everyone we met was loving it, I for one couldn’t wait for the cold… well at last it happened on last night… I left ‘188’ around 5pm to walk the 7 minutes to Tom’s and wondered why everyone was rugged up with coats and scarfs… far too soft these Poms, I reckoned till I’d walked a couple of blocks and realized just how cold I was in my cotton skivvy and light woollen vest but it was a brisk walk and Tom and Emma’s was nice and cosy and the evening walk home wasn’t too bad either.
What we have had has been an abundance of wonderfully sunny clear days…the sort of days that make you want to rush outside and do something… it’s all wonderful!
The max temp today is 6c and the min last night was 3c so at last it's getting colder.
Here is an update from Tom's upstairs window...
A nice sunny day and the vine on the back fence has lost it's leaves, you can see more of the park showing through now.
Tom has bought a Shed, David and he spent a couple of hours putting it together and it's filling up fast.
