In beautiful Bunbury, WA
Situated on the shore of the Indian Ocean
With the sun shining brightly behind the clouds
Listening to the pitter patter of the rain bouncing off the roof
While the gentle breeze is blowing through my hair, and everywhere else, while sitting on the back veranda
In case anyone did not realise, the above is said jokingly
It has been cold and miserable here
Half your luck to all those in sunny Qld

Hi Bob,
As a mate of mine from Launceston is fond of reminding me...old age is better than the alternative! I tend to agree!!!!!
Cheers

(suffering from the cold in my knee following a knee replacement which was "supposed" to fix the problem.)

Hello DD (& other Victorians still here),
Can I act as a short distance weather forecaster? There is MORE foul & cold weather heading your way!! The last couple of days in Warrnambool have been wet, windy & more than the odd shower of hail (thankfully small stones).
One thing you don't do down here is sweat!
We're off to Toowoomba early next week (more family issues) bypassing our planned stop of Bowra Station & missing out on a BirdLife trip to Bladensburg NP.
Our daughter & her partner are coping very well with their new babies (one of each sex) - a doubling of our grand children. The pressure will come early next year when she goes back to work.

Well done Ian. Enjoy the life, fellow full time GN.

Keep Safe on the roads and out there.

Still at home in Melbourne on day 7 since influenza reared its ugly head but, to the chagrin of some no doubt, recovering slowly.
No rain, 13C, full cloud cover and I ate half a Chocolate Orange for lunch :)
And I'm bored....

Hope you are better soon Mike. It's awful when you are feeling miserable with a bad cold or the flu.
Bob & Deb, I can thankfully be still classed as being among the quick. And I'm a bit quicker when I get out onto my bike with a tailwind!
How is Maleny, Rocket? you & Strop are very close to my old stamping ground from my childhood - I grew up at Landsborough and when I was a young fella, me and my mates used to enjoy riding up and down the old range road, as well as out to Caloundra for a surf on a hot day! We'd then ride back home (11 miles back then (now 17.6 km)) and reckon we felt so much fresher! The perceptions of youth.
Doug, I'll let you keep the Mornington Peninsula...too cold for me here, so I don't think I'd handle the cold there.
Cheers
Dave

I can attest to being quicker than that Dave. When I finish work the day before hitching up the van you cant see me for a cloud of dust! I'm off faster than a prom dress.

Hi dave1952, maleny is beautiful as always. My only gripe is people living in neighbouring houses who walk there dogs. Most are lovely, stop for a chat and have their dogs on leads. But there is always one irresponsible owner to ruin it. this bloke had his dogs lead around his own neck n dog walking wherever. Spose this will continue until someone is hurt and showgrounds gets sued. see it every time we come here.
