October 05

Well this month has been quiet. We have had problems with our car so havn't been going away every weekend like we normally do. Our car has been overheating but we have finally figured out that it's just the gauge playing up and the car isn't overheating at all.

We have had interesting weather lately. The seasons here are so different to New Zealand. We only had 4 days of truely cold weather for winter. Then at the begining of october we skipped spring and went straight into summer. It was 35 degrees here for a couple of days and 30 for a week. Apparently its normal to have a heat wave then. Now its proper spring weather with rain (finally! the dams are down to 34% and we have level 2 water restrictions) and comfortable temperatures of around 25.

We plan to go down to the Gold Coast this weekend. We don't have tickets to go watch the Indy cars racing but we thought we would lie on the beach and listen to them instead. Hope the sun is out!

I really don't have much to say this month. I finally sorted out the photos from our whitsundays holiday so will put those on the net some time soon (no promised). When I do I will also put some on of our current apartment.
