    Glad you’re back home and safe @Pat E. Ā Hope it stays cooler for a while and the smoke starts to clear. Ā 

    Calls in the small wee hours are the worst @Dovefromabove ......rarely bring good news 😳

    Looking forward to my day of gardening today. Ā I have spent far too much time inside (a house or a car) this holiday .....will be good to get some fresh air and dirty hands šŸ‘šŸ»

    Good morning and G’day.
    22 sounds more like it Pat - I hope that makes a bit of a difference.

    I could have done with an extra hour or two of sleep, but the morning is here and the week awaits. Have a decent day all.Ā

    Good morning all 😊 ā˜•ļøĀ 

    I’ve received a very apologetic text from son. It’s not the first time he’s ā€˜pocket-dialled’ me when he’s been working, but it’s the first time in the middle of the night.Ā 

    We did get back to sleep after a while and fortunately neither of us is working or doing anything important today.Ā 

    Fingers are very crossed that the cooler conditions continue in Australia. šŸ¤žĀ

    Morning all.Ā 
    So glad things are more calm for you @Pat E.
    Rubbish night last night, only about 3 hours sleep and I have to have a molar extraction at 9.30.

    Hi everyone. I was even cold this afternoon and there has been some light rain. Not enough to effect fires, but atmosphere feels a bit better. Hubby is out on the fire truck again tomorrow. ā€œBlacking outā€ Ā edges of smouldering roots etc. it seems that he can’t stay away. 😔

    Morning all.
    Glad Pat is cooler.
    I hope the molar is out now @Hostafan1 and you are recovering.

    I had a rotten night too. Aching back, couldn't get comfy. Also the heating came on, which it doesn't usually but it was -6° outside. When it's very cold the heating makes a wailing noise, think it's the valves on the radiators.

  • Late on parade again here, I too had a bad night, awake at 5:30 could not get back for over an hour but eventually drifted off and woke with a start at nearly 9am. Very unusual for me don't often have trouble sleeping. I think like others have spent too much time indoors as it has been so damp all over Christmas. Took our decs & tree down yesterday too.Ā 
    @Pat E so glad you & house are safe & you have some respite. Our news has reported some rain in places but all saying it's not enough, at least it might clean the air a little.

    Back from the dentist. Extraction wasn't text book. It broke up a bit so there's still some left so has to be monitored. Might just heal over, might be "ejected" , we'll see.
