Well its a nice day here today.. 23 odd degrees .. all blue sky .. and nice lil sea breeze (Wellington, New Zealand)

HOWEVER.. just been talking to one of my friends over in Victoria (State in Australia)

Everythings fucked over there

- Massive bush fires (they have THIRTY THOUSAND firefighters fighting the fires)
- Old people dying
- Animals all fuked up
- Power substations not being able to handle the heat

Well even tho it's winter, here the temps vary from ~5-15°C it's odd because it should be around zero :/
Btw I really couldn't imagine how it would be to live in a country where you're going to the beach on Christmas morning Smile Must be cool tho...

Well about 10 degrees C here...Pleasently warm and in a way nostalgicly gray...
There was a beautifull rain 15 minutes ago - all the clouds were blown appart in the district I live, so you could see the sky but it still rained and the leafless branches were covered in countless drops that in the sun rays made look as if taken from a fairtale scenary...
Still it is strange - I live in a mountain region - it should be around -5 this time of the year - I can still see the snow covored tops in the distance but last year there was around 20 cm of snow just in the city..Well guess I should thank global warming for that...

PS:I wrote all this so I can just win myself another minute or two away from my term exam paper on Kant...Damn university student psyhology....

I'll take -10C before 48C any day. In fact, I'll take 0C before 30C as well, I hate temps above 20-25C and don't react well to it. If it's cold you can put on clothes, but if it's silly hot you can't do much else but sit in front of a massive fan or use the AC in the car.

I'd literally melt away or get constant heat strokes. My viking genes made me a cool guy (pun intended)! Wink

Except I'm not from Sweden. But I've got plans to go there at the end of the year just to see what real winter looks like. Razz

Then you'll have to go to the northern half. Last decade we've had unusually little snow here in the south. :/

It depends on where I get admitted. The unis I'm interested in are down south though.

Yeah, I'm not going just cause of the snow. Smile

Its real fun with station wagons in snow. Contra, by contra without using the handbrake, even tho its FWD ^^ Very controllable and fun.

Doesn't work that great with sedans unless its RWD of course.

Did this with some mates today at 80km/h: (not my vid) We used longer rope too ^^
