I don’t think fall would be so bad if we had a summer ever!! But here it is always grey and wet – I think i may move with you!! You have room on your imaginary beach for me right??

In reply to Georgia Little Pea. I remember you sharing the video of the bird that was trying to break into a car on your street!

Most excellent video finds! I can’t decide which is my favorite. The song about all the deadly critters that live in AU or the “slogan contest” video.

In reply to Georgia Little Pea. OH my goodness, I just read your comments and can't stop laughing! I can tell you the most frightening thing in my neighbourhood are THE BIRDS! If I've said it once, I've said it at least 5 times on my blog. I am on a personal mission to dispel the myth that birds are sweet inoffensive creatures that warble and drink honey. You have a far better chance of being pecked in the head by birds than being kicked in the gut by a roo or taken by a croc. Okay, better get out of bed now and put on my armour for the day.

Struth! How did I miss this? You poor thing stuck in the impending gloom and doom of winter. I bet it’ll be a biggie too. Are you sure you don’t want to move here? I must say, and this is the honest truth, when I do my spring and summer posts, I think of you and all the poor people in the northern hem and try to put lots of nice sunny pictures so you won’t get S.A.D. If only humans could hibernate eh.

Well, I’m off to enjoy my beautiful Sunday. You rug up and have a good one too. And hey! THIS IS IMPORTANT. IT’S VEGEMITE, NOT MARMITE! I think M is what those palefaces in the UK eat. BWAH haha!!! 😀

I’m not much of an Autumn person either. Give me Spring, my absolute favorite time of the year. but I do love living where we have 4 seasons. I missed them when I lived in Washington.

The dogs like fall more than summer because they can run around like manics and be outside longer.

Well, I love autumn myself…probably has something to do with the fact that I live in a place that feels like a steaming swampy cesspool in the summer. But I will say that Georgia’s springtime postie brought me a big smile the other day, and got me thinking how much I enjoy that season too (and no, I’m not really this cheerful in person…:))

I’m with Sam. After hitting 98 all summer (thank heavens it wasn’t as hot as last year), we’re *thrilled* at the idea of winter. “Winter” meaning maybe one light frost.

Ha ha, those were too funny! We tried moving to South Carolina to be warmer, but I missed beautiful, green Oregon. We keep talking about a “winter” house (in our dreams, right?). Australia seems almost as scary as Texas 🙂

I moved to a warm climate many years ago to get away from cold weather. It helped some, but nothing makes up for the early night and late morning sunshine. I’m looking forward to GLP and her typist telling me that they are happy with our sunshine, that they have lovely scenery and activities in the sunshine, and will give it back to us in a few months. I’ve read some books set in Australia and it is a fascinating place…all those beaches.
