2.05pm in sunny Brisbane... About 21 C and promises of higher. Very light cloud away to the north and the clear azure vault of the heavens above..... damn, but that's good. Have to remember it.

Cool in the evening last night - about 12 C - Need to dig out the heavy blankets and switch on the old electric coal if this keeps up... It might get down to 8 at night before the winter's out.
