Well its been raining on and off all January with indespersed moments of humidity and heat.
Glorious colonial weather.
I am trying to imagine the first settlers surviving in weather like this in the conditions of 1800's Australia.
Women in full length petticoats, jackets and boots and men in dapper shirts and vests!
That would have been tragic - imagine the heat stroke!!!!!
There is many a tale of women catching their dresses in the flames of open hearths and going up like a Roman candle - there was no medical team to rush to their aid 200 years ago.
Fancy falling into a river dressed in petticoats and all the trimmings?
Thank the Lord for thongs ( flip flops ) t shirts and shorts for both men and women....oh and whoever invented the washing machine should get a Nobel prize.
