The scorch

It was one of those warm nights where it didn't really cool down much. The wind is now coming from the North which means desert wind. When we left to go to work at 7:40 this morning it was 28C. Promising...

This bus blew out HUGE clouds of smoke. You just can't believe they allow that shit on the road. It's no wonder Australians are amongst the biggest polluters in the world.

I had lunch in airconditioned Cafe Fresh.

A Vili's pie (already gone), schnitzel sandwich and a Nippy's.

Outside the wind was blowing hot and hard.

Waiting for the bus in the shade today. There was no way I was going to line-up in the sun.

When I came home it was 39C in the shade on the veranda. Apparently it reached 40.4 in our garden today. There are reports of bush fires as well so it looks like summer has arrived in all it's glory...

Something else that arrived in all it's glory was my tax form for 2007. Funnily enough I requested one for both me and Nicole but I never got one. I even made a phone call for mine but they said I didn't need to fill one in. Nicole has received her tax refund about a year ago already and they send me my form NOW. Oh, and it has to be back before March. They take a YEAR to send me one but I have to send it back within 1.5 months. The nerve.

The old laptop

For lunch I went to Cafe Fresh to get a Vili's pie and some chips. Just because I felt like it.

When I came home I was greeted by Mason who was behaving reasonably well.

Right now I'm installing Visual Studio 2005 on my poor, 7 year old laptop. It's NOT going very fast and judging by the noise of the fan it's getting quite hot...

Elvis

In the food court next to my work there is of course also a Hungry Jacks (the rest of the world calls them Burger King). If you're interested to find out why it's called Hungry Jack's here, you may read this article on Wikipedia.

This is Cafe Fresh. I sometimes go here during lunch. The man on the left, behind the counter, is an Elvis imitator called Bruno. He's a cool dude.

Monday night is P.J's night :-)
