Sounds like the Roaring Forties are hitting that part of Antarctica called Melbourne?



Not as bad as Hobart.

Hobart airport  1.4 degrees.

poor Socks.


I agree. Monk needs to surrender that poor long-suffering tropical dog immediately and buy a more climate - appropriate pet. I think this one would be just perfect for Monk. 👇

Are you doing everything you can to catch pneumonia?

Don’t bother ... just ask me. I can tell you all about it. 😔🥺😩

Some of these are soooo cute. They even have blue eyes.

Some look demon possessed though 😩

Were at a beach yesterday, Socks off–lead, no jumper.

She ran on the dunes, on the beach, in the sea.

Sounds like she is fine with Tassie conditions.

Looks like “Bobby”  is a tropical person who should move to Queensland!

The car temp was showing 6deg when I drove 1stborn to school at 7, seem like it's a bit warmer now.

Tonight will be cold as the SW wind is picking up.

I'll probably get a swim in around 1pm if I have time


You must know Wim Hof? Smiley
Both my millennial kids know of him and do what he recommends. Swimming in cold water, certain breathing exercises etc.
He’s a real marvel and I do admire the guy! I might do tepid cool water after a hot shower but that’s it!
When I was younger… our school in mid winter took us kids to the coldest unheated pool in the whole world! It was high up in Olinda (where it snows) and that water was freeze balls temp!
Now I’m thinking it probably did us more good than we knew!

It was coldest day of year over weekend… and we had hail stones yesterday. The air is icy as!
Wearing woolly thermal here!

How is Socks coping with the freezing climate with that thin tropical coat?
Has she got a jumper?
Do you put a hot water bottle in her dog bed under a few layers of wool?

Thermal undies here too but that is normal down here.

Today is nice and sunny but cool, good day to work in the kitchen, baking.

I have never worn those types of garments. Should I be?

Re hail....hope you had no damage there. 😩😔🥺

Why do people need thermal underwear, jumpers AND heaters going full blast??

Do they live in Antarctica?

Come to warm Tasmania!
