Snowing anywhere else?
And looking at that TAF.......... 45 knot wind this afternoon? Aww crap. Who wants to go to work for me?
Big Tudor 5th Oct 2005, 15:18 Sorry Jerricho old boy. Just come in from beside the pool, a very pleasant 38C today.
(No, not at home at the moment! :ok: )
airship 5th Oct 2005, 15:28 Let's face it. In a few years time when the oil's run out everywhere else and the Gulf stream stops flowing...
They'll still have oil in Canada;
they'll still have forests which they can chop down;
and they'll still have bears;
...but they'll still have to import beaver from eastern Europe... :E

Big Tudor 5th Oct 2005, 19:04 You may get your dream this year kooyheier . Apparently the Met Office is predicting a bit of the cold stuff for the UK this winter.
kooyheier 5th Oct 2005, 19:17 Any link to that info BIG TUDOR Always interesting to read about the weather
:ok:
Richard Taylor 5th Oct 2005, 21:10 Big Tudor:
Will Aberdeen get its annual White Christmas this year?
:ok:
tall and tasty 5th Oct 2005, 21:32 Apparently the Met Office is predicting a bit of the cold stuff for the UK this winter. :(
Time to emigrate to warm climates, love the cold crisp blue skies get in the Alps or Rockies, hate the British winter with a vendgance. The fall colours are making up for it at the moment and so pretty at work across the airstrip especially in the early morning mist.

guccigal 6th Oct 2005, 00:32 Jerricho,
Old Man Winter may have arrived in your part of the world, but here in BrisVegas, Hot Lady Summer has arrived early... it's going to be 35C today.
There's sure to be lots of bikini clad babes at the beach, bodies glistening with a hint of sweat.
At least you can look forward to catching some sun in January.

Snowboarding in Chamonix, followed by aperitifs at the bar, and a nice meal at the chalet with friends - I love France! :ok:

tinpis 7th Oct 2005, 04:39 Brizvegas hasnt got a bloody beach.
guccigal 7th Oct 2005, 04:48 Brizvegas hasnt got a bloody beach
True. Unless you count the "beach" at Southbank Parklands.
Wasn't inferring Brisbane had a decent beaches. Naturally, everyone heads to the Goldie or the Sunshine coast, luckily not far away at all. I'm sure most Brisbane people think of the Gold Coast as an honorary part of Brisbane during summer. Or we head to the backyard pools...
Happy?
chopperpug 7th Oct 2005, 07:16 well..... darwhine hasn't got beach you can swim at either, unless you want to end up on the front page of the NT news :(
Katherine.... 39 degrees... Blue sky..tinged with smoke
What more could a man want?? (or a women). Maybe somewhere slightly cooler and with better beer perhaps...but hey??
Got my winter sorted. Out of the UK on December 30th and back on April 2nd. Mainly Oz in between. Oh I do like this retirement...
GLS 62 7th Oct 2005, 10:47 JERRICO
Thank you for sharing your nice cool northern air. Walked out on the patio this AM at 0400 CDT with a cup of coffee. What a delight the temp down to 70F, northern breezes 20-25mph.
Life don't get better than this!!!
:ok:
Jerricho 7th Oct 2005, 13:32 I'm sure most Brisbane people think of the Gold Coast as an honorary part of Brisbane during summer.
Oh GG, has you been drinking them bloody alco-pop things again. Christ, I'd rather drive to Bribie Island.
:E
tinpis 7th Oct 2005, 20:06 Tin once owned a house at Bongaree.
Rollingthunder 7th Oct 2005, 20:09 RT once inhabited a house in Watson's Bay, (we called it Caligula's Boot) across the street from the manager for OZ PAN AM. It was a while ago and winter could be tricky...but the beach was great.

Sorry for the delay in posting the link. One has been familiarising oneself with vast quantities of alcohol, and suffering as a result.
