Wet , Windy Wednesday

Melbourne is experiencing an unseasonal cold snap.

The glorious days of Autumn are but a memory as the temperatures plummet , rain falls and wind squalls chill our extremities.

Time to get out the long pants and boots .Gloves , hats and scarfs are required especially early in the morning.

Our favourite coat may shout ‘ last season ‘ but who cares if it keeps us warm !

The good thing about winter is the hot chocolate , open fire and an excuse to indulge in a few treats as all those layers hide an extra kilo or two!

The heady days of summer are a memory and bright autumn mornings fade into dull, pre-winter dawns.

Good time to clean out cupboards and wardrobes . Recycle last seasons styles, garments that don’t fit , are worn out or no longer enhance  your style .

End of season sales are on . De – clutter to make room for something new.

Winter’s bleak days require a splash of colour so why not treat yourself to a sunshine yellow trenchcoat to remind yourself summer will be back .

Change of Season

The end of Summer beckons . It has been another long hot glorious summer with cicadas heralding dusk and parrots squabbling as they feed from the local flowering gum trees.

Mornings are darker and days are perceptibly cooler .Bright light is still common in the middle of the day and the odd hot day still occurs but with decreasing frequency.

February is traditionally the hottest month and the devasting bushfires in victoria of february 09 attest to this .Record breaking temperatures , combined with strong winds set the dry bush around melbourne alight with a sickening ferocity  and loss of life.

Easter is early April , pre – season footy has started and the shops are advertising their autumn fashions . Summer sales are over , op -shops have recycled unwanted Christmas presents and young people are back in the daily grind of school , study , sport , and part – time work . Tertiary students commence on 1march after a long summer hiatus and workers and employers alike have long been back in the routine.
