Wow, it’s some kind of a day outside!  Sydney hit 35 degrees sometime around 2pm and the hot, gusty Westerly wind means the beaches are offshore and looking their best.  There’s not much for

Hmmmm...

This morning…. hmmm, what can I say about this morning. There was a little bit of colour.  Did you see it?  Just a hint of pink trying to break through the grey.  In the end the grey won and
