Officially from the mouths of NIWA the news is that we have all just endured the coldest December in 60 years.. in fact for Wellington it was 70 years. That is a long time. I met some folk today who had just arrived in the country from Noumea where they left behind 35 deg temps, and they were feeling quite miserable in spite of the beautiful sunny day we were having. Yes, it has been sunny but still very cool. Average temperatures through the country only 13.7 degs.
Has the cooler weather made a differenct to any of you ? Here in Auckland where it is normally so very humid, and which I have never really got used to, for I hate humidity .. I cannot function properly when I an standing dripping wet all the time, and I swell up, and everything is an effort. Well, I have been revelling in the cooler weather.. no swollen feet, no sweaty armpits or chaffing under my apron or boobs. Gee, I wish it would stay like this! So long as there is no rain, and no gales. I honestly don't know how our feathered friend and others in the land of OZ cope with the high temps they have over there. Chooky, I guess it is a little cooler in them thar hills, and do you ever get high humidity like we do, or is it a dryer heat up there in Katoomba ?
