Today we have one of the hottest days of the year. In the west of Sydney it is predicted 43 degrees. However, we are on the east benefiting from the sea breeze.
At the same time I hear that they have had the worst week ever in the UK with more snow than anyone can imagine. I really wish I would have been there, SMS'ing my boss that I would not be able to go to work as it is snowing. Imagine how that would affect companies in Sweden or Finland. They would have to close down for 6 month each year.
It does remind me of going to Helsinki to visit Nokia in February 2007. The plane was delayed at LHR due to bad weather there, but we both landed and took off at Helsinki with lots of snow and below ZERO degrees without incident. Same things applies to trains. When in Helsinki I took the train to work every day for a week ( lots of snow and below zero degrees). They were on time and very pleasant.
Anyway - Our really nice neighbour Sarah, has just returned and I need to prepare in case she shows up for a pre-dinner G&T!
