Hot Hot Heat ...



As I sit here and do this blog entry (... not something you've done much of recently I hear you cry) a breeze blows softly across the keyboard! Sound perfect you might think!... well this breeze feels like one leaving an oven that I've got my head inside! Things have been a little on the warm side for the last few days as warm air gets sucked out from the interior towards the coast. We've had three days with temperatures in the low forties! For the most part we've opened up the house and had the ceiling fans whirring! Alfie's had his air conditioner on for day time sleeps but that's about it. As I type Beth is in the shower making those strange noises that people make when the water gets really cold!



With all this heat there has been no better weekend to catch up with Amy and Mitchel our neighbours, something we've not done for a while. We had a splash in the pool followed by some BBQ'ed lunch. Alfie seems to be gaining in confidence in the pool, so much so that he's now more of a danger to himself as he has the perception that he can swim on the surface, or more often than not under water!



Here is a weather related article from the Sydney Morning Herald. There is a cool change on the way tonight however which will make Monday twenty degrees cooler than today! ... this coincides with my day at the beach with my class lifesaving ... typical!



... Alfie makes friends with a Preying Mantis!



... Budgie Smugglers... quite fetching!
