expensive as a vistor, perhaps, and thats due to the aussie dollar being very strong lately.
in fact its killing me at present... 2-3 years ago I got around $2.80 to the pound sending money back, and now its nearly half that! I'm seriously thinking its time to go home.

that's a huge difference
but it's easier calculating when all currency has more or less the same value.

I sometimes listen to Ed Doolan the local radio presenter here in Birmingham for Radio WM. He is from Australia he has a good show. He prefers living here & actually lives near me. He is always playing the song Waltzing Matilda

What a weekend. Saturday morning I was at work when my wife called, no water upstairs. The plumbing froze somewhere. That afternoon we tried to locate where, it appeared to be in a closet, i placed a portable heater there to defrost it slowly. As i was really tired i went to bed early but got woken up at 1am. Water is coming down! First i closed the watersuply and we used towels and buckets to minimize the damage downstairs. The leak happened to be behind the bath. I had to remove it to have excess and cut the works to place an endstop in it. While doing this my son woke up and puked all over his bed, sick. It was 5am when we all were in bed.
Today my boy was still ill and will be tomorrow too. I managed to redo the plumbing today and replace the bath. Now I'm tired and need a shower
Have a nice week you all
Posted by Bonovox
Good god mate that's the weekend from hell
Have a good rest. When you explained stuff over on Face Book I never realised it was quite so bad
Posted by hihihans
it was. Everything is still wet. It will take a little while to dry.
Posted by Bonovox
Gosh well this snow is pissing me off already now it's turning to slush too fast & makes it horrible to walk on even in my water proof boots with huge grips
Posted by hihihans
Oh yes that reminds me, I slipped Friday evening in the snow lucky I didn't hurt myself. That same night I slipped with the car on a roundabout but I was prepared so nothing happened.
I HATE SNOW! !
Posted by Bonovox
Yeah looks pretty but after a while it begins to annoy. Fbloise said he slipped over too twice
can do yourself an injury

I love snow and am sorry to see it come and go so quickly!
In Australia, in the Snowy Mountains for example, we have to make alot of our snow in order to get a good season and plenty of coverage.
You never see snow in Sydney or Melbourne though, although occassionaly the blue mountains 50km west of Sydney get a light dusting, and then we have a good excuse for Christmas in July! (as the seasons are reversed, of course)

I know a lot of people like snow and ice. My daughter went iceskating today and only came in for a snack and hot choco. I just think that everything below 20'c is cold
Posted by Bonovox
Always used to see much worse than this back in the 80's(sound old) when I was a kid we always had heavy snow. Looks like it's starting to return that way after last year maybe. Europe got it bad. My dad said 1963 was the worst one he remembers. I do love the snow am like a big kid but I hate it when it begins to melt getting slushy

The hell of '63
That's the nickname of a 200km skating race and tour through 11 Dutch (Friesen) cities. It can only be organized when the ice is at least 15cm think on the entire track. The last time was in '97.
'63 got his nickname because of the bad weather conditions. Only a few made it to the finish, the rest was told to get of the ice and go home before you freeze to death.
Every year when temperature is below zero for a week "elfstedentocht" is talk of the day. Will it happen, or not?
