We deserve some nice weather dont we?

I hear its a windy place to live.... I wouldnt like that. It can be humid up here but Ive not found it a problem. It was just a shame that this winter and spring was not like last year... that was lovely.... very wet in fact but with lovely warm sunny days too....... this year it was just miserable. See Im definately a whinging pom!!! Too cold or too windy or too something else!!

Id hate that. I like to go horse riding and the one weather I dont like to ride in is windy weather.... it makes them skittish. It also gives me headaches if Im out in the wind for very long. Its breezy here but just warm sea breezes mainly.

Horse riding sounds great! Yeah, Wellington weather is shit, but what can you do. I think I've done enough whinging about it now.

Yeah a chap who was going to take some pics of a villa they just added to rentabach.co.nz called me today saying he didn't take any yesterday as the weather wasn't cooperating but he hopefully took some today. Uh... I mean, tomorrow.

Was lovely here again today.... in fact slightly too hot for me to sit on the beach so took my son to the park instead which is in the shade of Pohutukawa trees.

This was the first day I couldn't sit in the sun when I got home from work Summer has finally arrived

We're all set for the stockies tomorrow night - the first time in ages that we haven't been worried about being rained off!
