I'm ok thanks otto. I have given up the other site. Too much hassle and no longer enjoyable. All ok here although we could do with getting a few more days of sunshine before it's downhill to winter. All ok with Mrs Otto and the Ottettes?
Probably end of November Jan, there are 2 other "Young Master Otto,s" to keep me in line though.
Some days during winter the frost in the shaded areas never melts. The bird bath freezes for days upon end. Yes, it does get cold here, but it is a "dry cold".
Minus 8c is the coldest I've recorded in the last fifteen years. 48c is the hottest.
Yeah, I remember now. (I need prompting occasionally, old timers disease is setting in ;-).
We don't get snow here, not "high" enough apparently, but it does fall close by.
Lots of locals took their "ankle biters" to Coolah Tops, about 40mins drive away 2 weekends ago so they could build snowmen. I didn't coz I'm a grumpy old sod, besides that, all my kids are old enough to drive themselves wherever they want to go.
Haven't built a snowman for years. Our winters tend to be more wet and windy . We don't get nearly as much snow as we used to... or so it seems to me anyhow.
