Re: Good Morning Friday !

Eh! the day is nearly over, you people do live in the past.

It has be hot, windy and steamy, on the NSW fire fronts a southerly change is coming this evening sending the fires north.

Three Alpine blazes have joined forming another mega blaze with its own weather heading towards Canberra when the southerly buster arrives.

Hi everyone. Today is the first day this week when the memsahib doesn't have any jobs for me to do - yippee - so the rest of the day is mine to do as I please.
