[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 403265, member: 1991"] G'day people. It's been a cooler day here today, a little. But only a little. Sunny, hot but thankfully here, a trace of sea breeze. Tomorrow - a scorcher! The west of Sydney is forecast to be 42 C (108 F). Tomorrow is Australia Day. It's also difficult child 3's 17th birthday and we have nothing planned. Given the heat, I might try to get difficult child 3 to the beach. They're saying it will be the hottest Australia Day for 30 years, but there was a stinker of an Aussie Day about 8 years ago when easy child 2/difficult child 2 was stiltwalking for the local council. In the heat. It was a big gig, it paid a lot of money, but it was an all-day family effort. We're planning a relaxed summer meal at mother in law's tonight. Toasted sandwiches and salad. Nothing too heavy. Tomorrow we'll have a roast dinner in the evening (probably - depends on the heat) which is fairly typical for Australia Day. Or a barbecue. Or a beach picnic. This is like the first real day of the year, for us in Australia. Kids go back to school two days later (new school year); people go back to work after summer holidays; a lot of businesses re-open after the Christmas break; various organisations pick up and begin their new year. it's the last day of partying, before we ease back into more serious work life for the year. Enjoy your Tuesday. Send us cool thoughts tomorrow, I'll try to share some of our heat tomorrow with those of you suffering deep snow. Marg [/QUOTE]
