It is great to have had the good weather this weekend, it hit 33.5 degrees yesterday, 31 today. No wind yesterday so it got very hot; today was windy but muggy with thunderstorms possible tonight.
The weather is great but it comes with it’s own problems
The weather brings out the flies, and they are not like UK flies, they just don’t give up!! They fly into your ears, eyes and mouth and all over your face, flap them away and they just keep coming back, pestering you to the point of despair…. I can now see why a hat with corks would be a good idea
On a sad note, it doesn’t matter where you are in the world, and Australia has a image of being laid back, but when the temperatures get up the wankers come out as was proved yesterday at a beach in Perth when 200-300 pissed wankers started abusing lifesavers on the beach trying to help a teenage girl in trouble…. which ended up with the beach being closed and it looked like it would take 8 hours to clear up all the rubbish left
Summer is on it’s its way. It was 27 degrees today, it was glorious. I went up the shops after work at 6pm and it was warm wearing jeans and a t-shirt, so…
I can’t wait for next week. The weather has just been on and Tuesday is going to be 29 degrees, with Wednesday (unless it changes) tipping into the 30s at 31 degrees.
Oh and sunny too…..
Can’t wait, summer is coming (it is still Spring, Summer does not officially start until December)
On a negative note, in the West Australian this weekend, because the UV index is so high (it will be 9 tomorrow) we have been advised to wear sunscreen even when it is cloudy!!
On the 1st of September Winter officially ends and Spring starts…. exactly 3 months for each season (makes it easier to remember so I have been told)
I am also aware from people that the UK has left a lot to be desired when it comes to the weather at the moment, so to make matters worse I thought I would rub it in 
Summer in Brighton
Winter in Perth
Now not one to state the obvious, so I won’t. I’ll leave it up to you all to work out what to do.
In the meantime I will be waiting, sitting in the sun with a nice cold beer. Text me when you land and I will have a pint ready for you.
It is exactly what it sounds like, a rock that is wave-shaped. Had a great 2 days away from Perth with April and Andrew, great to get out of the city. I spent Saturday in shorts as it was 23 degrees and sunny
Wave Rock was amazing and had an amusing meal in Hyden at the Wave Rock Hotel/Motel on Saturday night. One of those places where as you walk in the regulars look at you (You’re not from around here are you Boy?)
Well that’s Wave Rock above, the view from the top was amazing
We stayed in a cottage at the Wave Rock Lake Resort, which was on the banks of a Gypsum lake, the sun set over the lake behind our cottage, so guess what….
The weirdest thing was this rusted vehicle in front of the cottage
It was a great weekend away, even with the 8 hour round trip (luckily Andrew did all the driving), plus we got to see Red Kangaroos (sorry no photos)
