About Me

My photo
Perth/Fremantle, Western Australia, Australia
An independent, working woman, I live in a riverside suburb close to both Fremantle and Perth. Having lived in Perth for over thirty years it's obvious that I love the place, though there are still things that irritate and make me squirm with embarrassment. Occasionally they will make an appearance; but generally speaking this is a pretty good place to live.

Cold.......brrrrr .....so cold


Perhaps, because we do not believe Winter is ever cold here, that it is with some surprise we wake up in the morning to white, frost tipped lawns and freezing temperatures. The current 'cold snap' is forecast to last until next Thursday, when rain and the subsequent cloud cover will cause the temperatures to rise, or at least not plummet.

Beanies, layers, coats, scarves and gloves have been the order of the day, especially for the early risers. Heaters, doonas, electric blankets and even hot water bottles are all high on the topic list of coffee morning chatterers. Thankfully together with the cold early mornings are the brilliantly blue shining days which follow. Magnificent!
