Minus 3, that's right I said -3 in Kingston this morning at 8.30 am. But I still love it.

Good lord, I was absolutley frozen this morning, and I had no de-icer, was having to search about for a crappy credit card so I could scrape the ice off of the windscreen on the car.

 

So, anyway, was coming down the hill into Hobart and looking down at the wharf and the sun was shining down, and once again I thought WOW, (just like I do every morning), I'm so grateful and so very lucky to be living here.

 

I LOVE this place, and hot or cold it ticks every box for me, one year on from us moving here, and hopefully for many more years to come.

Canberra is the same. Gets cold overnight and in the morning but the sun comes out and it is a beautiful day.

Just as long as there wasn't ice on that steep section of the Southern Outlet - you could have arrived downtown very quickly!:eek:

[crispysince70]

You're so right, one of the reasons I got a good view this morning was because the traffic was all backed up because of an earlier accident.

 

Hope you're good Skani.

Don't know about good.:err:

But keeping warm carting lots of firewood for my wood burner.:biggrin: (We had a few snowflakes up this way the other day but nothing settled). Was down your way last week - taking small person to Kids Bizz and contributing to the Kingston economy!

I'm confused with tassie being that far south it must be tropical. Birds always fly south for winter

Fortunately they know where to stop and turn around

[Guest guest71686]

[runslikeafish]

Me too! :wubclub:

 

Me too!! :biggrin:

You're making me homesick guys. I was born in Tassie and it is still the place I call home although I have lived in many places around the world and left Tassie 30 odd years ago. We are moving back to Oz in November to Melbourne so I will be close

-3C is tepid!

Ah....but people get lulled into the comfort of our warm Tasmanian climate! :biggrin:

This is my second winter here and I feel colder this winter than I did during my first. As someone for the north of England it's a bit embarrassing to say that anything below 20°C is now jumper weather. All I can say is that I've acclimatised.

Hi crispy,

I can't bring anti freezer in December but do you think a couple of packets of Gold Blend would warm the cockles of your heart?

love from us xxxxx

that is my idea of perfect weather.....

 

Probably because I grew up in Johannesburg..... loved those frosty mornings then by lunch time it was nice and sunny.....

[Paul1Perth]

That's enough to put me off visiting.

Don't be a wuss! :wink: You are allowed to visit in the summer - when it's not minus 3.
