Whats Sun Rise???
We don,t and never have that in winter, we have Real Clouds down here that piss down. All you get up there is a " Girls Winter" Ha Ha.
Sun shine in winter how ridiculous . Definitely Girls Winter , No meat pies, and no Footy . That sort of country up there probably sells pie and peas .
You probably don,t even own a jumper. or more than one blanket you poor things. I guess you don.t even know what Chimney means



So I guess you dont know what this is

I got Sunburnt yesterday in sunny lovely Brisbane. Winter days out on the bay are 24 degrees and flat as a tack. That's why I can't move for new south Welshmen and victorians taking our houses n jobs. They sure are a diff breed of cat.

SirJman. I just googled Mornington Pier and see a long concrete structure on Schnapper Drive. Is this that pier?
In the photo on Google Earth there are yachts moored inside the pier. Looks like a disaster of a place for boats.

Northerlies are my worry where I am But am hoping for a break in the weather and move. Hope to remove both mast next week at Brighton and move to Patterson lakes with out mast and get some work done as its only a few minuets from home and I don't have to worry about the weather in there. Ill bring both mast home and refurbish them here. So Ill have a full 7 days after work and nights after that continuously till spring. Should get a lot done though looking forward to it

We had our first snow for winter last night and it should be a balmy 14 tomorrow with possible showers and I have a RDO so all going well I should be able to get a nice sail in

i have a chap coming in the morning to look at my Spacesailer so all going well we should be able to take it out for a sail and then either take my Sailmaster out for a while or jump on a mates recently purchased little racer http://yachthub.com/brokers/mdbs_rushcutters/print.php?de=90728 and see how she goes
