Happy New Year 2018 from Down Under!
« on: December 31, 2017, 09:47:34 AM »
To all you poor souls freezing to death up there in Northern climes, please have a Safe, Enjoyable and Healthy 2018.
....from a glorious 33°c day in Perth (almost West of Everywhere!!  ;D)

Ride on!!

Thanks Andy,
We had 3 degrees yesterday and 3 degrees today so that’s the same as your 33 (never was good at maths)
Please say hello to my Auntie Podes,

Ian, 59 degrees North, 3 degrees West, so nearly North of Everywhere.

And a Happy New Year from us

If that's 3° Celcius then that's flamin' cold mate!  If it's 3° Fahrenheit then it's -16° C and that's (insert expletive here) cold!!! :o :o

It was -3 yesterday.   The car was ticking over for 10 minutes while I ate my breakfast.   By the time my first pupil got in it was nice and toasty.

Despite the dig at our rubbish weather, Happy New Year Andy. And in advance, (as I'll probably be in bed at midnight due to an afternoon 'session'!). Happy New Year to all the great guys and gals on our forum - genuinely friendly, generous, helpful and knowledgeable friends - all the best!
