    Its a crime to be stuck indoors on a day like this sitting as a desk doing a boring job.

    What would you rather be doing if you had the day off?

    I'd like to be outside in my folks backgarden with all the family around having a bar-b-que.:D Sigh!

    In a country with our weather there should be a law stating the whenever a day like this comes along it becomes an automatic public holiday! At least there are only a few hours left today then its out to the garden with a 6-pack of ice-cold beer! Woohoo!

    It's fabulous out and I really hope it stays this nice for tomorrow....my sister is getting married :)

    Looks like it'll be a nice evening so I'm sure we'll be sitting out on the deck having a few drinks tonight.

    Should be good fun.

    Some Guy told me according to the interweb we are expecting a 'mexican' summer. I have absolutly no idea what that means.We used to call hot spells Indian summers, maybe it's a racist thing and he was being PC..:D

    Does that mean we can all fall asleep under huge hats between 1 and 3 pm? That would be cool.

    It will be nice tomorrow and all weekend long.
    Getting warmer too :)

    Temps could get into the mid or high 20's in places by Monday and into early next week.
    Summer has truly arrived (for now)
