Winter is coming?

"I loved autumn, the one season of the year that God seemed to have put there just for the beauty of it."

Lee Maynard

Normally at this time of the year we'd be rugged up and huddled around the fire (indeed it has been ignited on one or two occasions recently), but weirdness upon weirdness the temperature has suddenly increased over the last couple of days to fire inducing levels!

The temperature is going up?

So with GOTS8 in full swing and every daggy dad out there glued to the screen, is winter really coming? We'll prepare as usual by using the Easter "holidays" to make our world famous eucalyptus and honey candles to help warm the winter months (and make the house smell nice).

The leaves are definitely turning so despite the strange weather we will assume that we will return to cool temperatures soon and that we can leave the stinking heat of summer behind us and wrap ourselves up in the glory of a Tasmanian winter.

Leave us alone, we're changing

It has been interesting to hear people this year complain that Tassie is too warm in summer and too cold in winter. Really Goldilocks, don't you know that it is always just right!
