Anytime we told Sydney-siders that we were moving to Melbourne, there was much laughter about how we would be used to the cold and how we should take plenty of jumpers  . . . it's 43 degrees today!!

Victoria is having a nice little heatwave that started on Wednesday (thankfully we had moved all our furniture by then) with it hitting 43 degrees by about 5pm and not cooling down - it was 30 degrees at 7.30 this morning!!

This weekend it is meant to be cooler - ony 35 degrees.

When we were house hunting we didn't have air-con as one of our essential items but we are VERY glad that we have it in our lounge - we may all be forced to sleep in there tonight!
