Hi! Holger,

On 08 Jun 16 09:49, you wrote to me:

 PQ>> Winton', and this year was the 40th anniversary meet.

Enjoy!  :)

This end of town has been through many floods over the years.  The house is an
early settler's cottage, with a lot of upgrades.  It's over 100-something
years old, and is on concrete stumps.  I'm about 1.8m and in most places under
the house I have to duck my head, lest I prang the woodwork... which I have
done a lot of times, in times' past, as I'm sure I've got a flatter forehead.

 PQ>> to an equinox, Holger.  Maybe we'll share similar temperature
 PQ>> ranges as well as length of days, for a short space of time.  :)

 HG> Yes probably, when the REAL summer starts. What we have had so far,
 HG> has been some sort of appetizing pre-summer.

Well, it's just not letting go here.  The temp was 19.1C at 9h30 this morning.
We're expecting a max of 25+C later.  We had a max of 30C just the other day.
Gorgeous weather besides.  It's actually a pleasure to enjoy a few moments in
the sunshine (which is still dangerous for us in winter).

Cheers,
Paul.
