Mentalechoes

Sitting in my flat on a Sunday afternoon, the temperature feeling like it’s around mid 20’s, reminds me a lot of Brisbane on Sunday afternoons at the end of summer. Sitting in a chair in just a pair of long shirts, enjoying the feeling of being hot. Just a little bit of a sweat going, and wanting to have a cold can of drink in your hands to cool you down. Lovely!

It’s one thing I do miss from back in Brisvegas; the summer heat. There’s something very relaxtastic about sitting on a couch of an afternoon on a verandah, drinking a beer, while the stereo plays in the background. Maybe a mate or two to complete the ensemble. Perfect!

It’s been a bit of a shit summer this year, all things told. And I’ve been told by more than a couple of locals that this weekend is the last warm weather of the year. I do find that hard to believe after all the stuff I’ve been forced to swallow about global warming. If anything, I would expect we’ve got another 3 months of fine weekends until the temperature cools slightly and I need to put on a light skivvy around the end of December.

I live in hope!

Andy.
