May 8. Day 19. Weather you like it or not


Sweet dreams are not made of cheese.

Personally I find Crowded House's Weather With You pretty nuts. "everywhere you go, always take the weather with you". I reckon a one of the great motivators for travel to escape the weather. In the heat of a Queensland summer so many people avoid basting in the fan-forced oven by leaving. At this time of year the human tide is all moving the other way. More Victorians are in Noosa than in North Melbourne right now. And who can blame them? I do not do cold. Anything under 20 degrees is very fresh. Under 10 and I struggle to get out of bed. The big motivator to get up and going is often it is far warmer outside and the skies are so clear and blue. plus you are far less likely to get sunburned
