I got goosebumps just looking at those photos Asterix!

Cool again here. Low 20's  :D

And yes, I am a scrooge :P It pays off though! My electricity bill today was half what it usually is  :D

I'm not a huge fan of car air con. However while I didn't use it too much in the Ford, for some reason I find the cabin quite stuffy in my i30 if I only have the air on. Not sure if it will be different come winter but for now it is :(

Here's a couple of my favourites from here:







Sorry, they're a little big  :-[ And also not from other parts of the world, but other parts of the country will have to do  :P

Just had a thought. Often various members post pics from a trip they make.
I wonder if we should have a sticky topic along the lines of "Pics from around the world"?

Tassie is gorgeous! It's funny, sometimes when you live somewhere you forget how lovely it is. Living in Canberra for 10 years I missed the mountains and rainforest here the most (everyone used to think I'd miss the beach and I did, but not as much as the rainforest).

Hey Panda

Haha, none here thank goodness! Although the ocean gets plenty gray on a cold day! Used to get ice in Canberra, nothing like where you live though!

Good pics panda.

Me too. When I was a kid it was this huge thundering amazing thing. Now it's barely a trickle, even after a lot of rain :( Sadly it's a half an hour drive, $10 entry fee and a 45 minute SUPER steep walk to get to it so it doesn't happen very often.

You can see some of it a bit more full (and some pictures of the walk etc) here: https://www.google.com.au/search?q=Minnamurra

Yes, I hate it when the bitumen goes back to liquid due to the heat. It creates a bit of a mess but unfortunately quite common in summer.
