pie-eater 207 Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 I haven't been out all day, so I don't know what the weather was like. Link to post Share on other sites
HelperElfMissy 42 Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Was supposed to have reached 37 degree's C here yesterday - it was pretty hot, but I didn't see a weather report last night so it is unconfirmed...however they are forecasting 39C for today. I have another outside around the pool party to pull off this afternoon - arrghh!! I SURE am dreaming of fluffy white COLD snow at the moment!! Link to post Share on other sites
samandfee 1 Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Sounds good Mamabear, but can you imagine my kids have to go to the Perth Zoo today.......i have seen the flies there in winter.....not today ...oh no......[probably carry off the smaller ones today] Link to post Share on other sites
HelperElfMissy 42 Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 yikes....Perth Zoo on a 39 degree day. Are they still in school? Mine are finished...so they are under foot! Looks like it is going to be HOT when we leave Perth too - so it will be jeans and a singlet top to the airport, and a big thermal warm top packed into the back pack to cope with chillier climes in Tokyo. The worst part is coming BACK to the heat. Link to post Share on other sites
Go Native 70 Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 I went back to Aus last week for a funeral. Got out at Melb airport in 32 degrees and damn near fainted. That's about the warmest temp I've experienced in the last 3 years. Luckily only about a half hour after arrival a cold front came through dropping the temps back to something much easier to handle.

Jynxx 4 Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Snowing again this morning and first time, it went all white... snow on rooftops, white trees ... unfortunately, the local lifts aren't operating yet. Link to post Share on other sites
samandfee 1 Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Fortunately i had forethought when young to realise that having kids early enough, they would be off my hands and with their own children, well before i made mid forties.....so while i go for a swim they can drag the grandchildren around the zoo fighting flies in almost 40 degrees......bless em.

HelperElfMissy 42 Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 ahhh...so samandfee your kids are not kiddies at all..? They are parents themselves? I am in that position with the older two - however I will be closer to 50 by the time the youngest is off on his own. It is really nice being youthful and fit enough to hang out with your adult children in the ski fields though...isn't it! Link to post Share on other sites

Your input was missed while you were gone. But YES it is awfully hard to get off that plane knowing how hot the blast of air is going to be! Link to post Share on other sites
samandfee 1 Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Yes Mamabear, would like the notion of skiing with the tribe sometime or other, the little grandchildren would be off like ducks to water i'm sure, but their parents would hate it now i'm sure also,couples with kids very hard gig. Much easier for me,Japan in a few weeks, then Argie in august probably............but today i have melted into 3 people, one i left in a sweltering carpark in Freo. Thank you to the person who invented the fridge. Link to post Share on other sites
