Clothing for Jan in Surfers
 
Hi guys,

Heading over to Surfers for 10 days on 8th Jan.

What clothing will I need?

Its been quite hot here in Perth so my everyday clothing is generally shorts and T Shirt for day wear and a light dress for evenings out.

Will the above be ok or should I bring long trousers for evenings ?

Need to start thinking of packing soon.

Cheers

Mags

long trousers :rofl: sorry its been in the mid 30`s for the last few weeks and high 20`s at night
( allthough its cooler today due to the rain ) its still really sticky
so loose cotton or linen clothing would be best

I quite agree :thumbup:

I put my trousers away every year between about September and May.
Although I did have to get them out once for a wedding.

I have these three on my "Best British Style Indian Curry in Australia" list.
  • The Spice Avenue Balti Restaurant, Birkdale, Queensland, 4159,
  • Randhawa's Indian Cuisine, 340 Hope Island Rd, Hope Island, QLD 4212
  • Bombay Masala, 59 Railway St., Mudgeeraba, Gold Coast, QLD 4123.
The Birkdale one is an hour North of Surfers though.

RATS! I read the title wrong ....I thought someone was going to be generous and buy me some clothes :rofl:;)

No long trousers, maybe (at a pinch) a lightweight jumper....oh and an umbrella :)

Saffron at Broadbeach is good. Can be hot though, even normally mild things like mushroom bhajis was burning last time we went.
