And you think your bank holiday weather is bad!

So you sit over there thinking that it's all blue sky, sun and warm temperatures over here in Sydney. Well let's be honest, yeah, most of the time it is. But winter is upon us and this weekend is the Queen's Birthday public holiday weekend, we've got Monday off. By the way if I said "Bank Holiday" over here they wouldn't have a clue what I was on about.

Anyway, it's all a bit like home this weekend as the weather took a turn for the worse just as the long weekend started.

But not just a bit of rain, oh no. Gale force winds, torrential rain, massive oil tankers running aground, cars washed away from bridges, trees being uprooted, roads collapsing, ferry wharves collapsing, etc, etc. It's all happening this weekend, and you whinge after getting a few showers on May Day!?! Pfft!

It's also bloody freezing, I've even had to put a duvet on my bed....I didn't come all the way over here to have to use a duvet!! Roll on summer ey!
