Just curious what constitutes being cold or "freezing" for an aussie? cause hot to us is mild to you fuckers, is cold for you what I would consider pleasant picnic weather?

Also where the fuck was the happy summer vibes for me, why just the americans why not the brits or the Europeans...fucking racist but then what do you expect from a bleeding aussie, they cheat at cricket, call flip flops thongs and have no respect for the British people, you aussies just remember we still own you, now get yah shit stars off our flag..

Well, it has actually been quite hot here the last week. Monday was the hottest day we have had this summer and I put some clothes out on the line and they were dry in around an hour and we seem to be experiencing some strange weather in Australia in the last decade with boiling hot days in winter and freezing cold days in summer and a lot of people say it is due to Global Warming but I am not sure. What I do know is the weather isn't the same as it used to be. We get nowhere near as much rain as we used to get and we used to get rain that would last for weeks when I was younger and it would rain and rain and you would think it was never going to stop. We also got a lot of hailstorms and thunder and lightning and there were houses' that had their roofs and verendahs destroyed by hailstorms and the hail would be the size of tennis balls and smash car windows. That rarely happens anymore and the last major flood we had was back in 1992 and I am hoping we don't get any more floods but we need more rain 'cause we are currently having a drought and musicians like John Farnham, Guy Sebastian and Adam Harvey are all coming together to do a drought relief concert to help farmers 'cause it is affecting a lot of them at the moment. 

Yeah well we once had a twister that knocked up to a dozen titles of peoples roofs, and knocked over a plant pot, but the plant pot may have been Mr Matthews subling home pissed from the pub, we cant be sure.

Nah we mostly get flooding but even that's not really where I live, we did have it like 2 years ago it rained so hard it knocked out the power for like 2 or more miles all around my place for almost the entire day, but luckily where I live in my town is at the top of an incline, so it doesn't flood here above shoe height, means I just have to wear me steel toe caps that day, people on the bottom though are fucked as it is literally a dip and then another incline so they get it from either side, poor bastards...I noticed though inspiter of all that still no good vibes for the brits from you Deb? I shall remember this and you shall rue this day, RUE I SAY!!!

Is your government are as mental as ours is, like every summer we get drought warnings, and hose pipe bans then we get flood warnings and actual flooding, then they say it's the "wrong" type of rain so were still in a drought, when there are cars literally half submerged under water...makes no damn sense to me, but we just came off a 2 month drought in the last few weeks, and on my sisters birthday recently it rained all day...just your typical British summer.
