They've already got one. It's at the Gold Coast but it went rusty when they switched it on.

if it doesn't rain here soon, we'll need the desal plant yesterday.

With the population of Melbourne exploding, it will be needed.

(and it's COLD here)

Trust me, I would loooove 20 degrees!!! I actually just spent 20 minutes with my head in the freezer! I now have a couple of soggy half-defrosted pizzas but at least my head is a bit cooler

That is just horrible, it is hard for people to imagine just how uncomfortable that sort of weather is. I dont miss that at all.

Great day for drinking and relaxing A nightmare for outdoor workers and people going about everyday business, especially if your stuck in a traffic jam and your aircon has maxed out and stopped being effective.

If you love doing absolutely nothing, this is the weather to do it in.

Two weeks in Spain holiday weather in other words.

Nowhere near as bad as last week.
