Yesterday, in the post Weird Weather, Heather, I pointed out that the weather was still like midsummer, instead of being on the brink of winter. But Melbourne's climate is capricious. This morning the weather turned full circle. After a warm, almost tropical night, the temperature slid off the scale and we had some very welcome rain as the cold southerly wind swept in. So even though the roses are still blooming in my garden (above) the story today was very different (below). One thing's for sure - you can never get bored with the weather here.

We have a saying around these parts: If you don't like the weather, wait a minute.
David,
"Capricious" now there is a twenty-five cent-er. I love that word!
Debbie

Hi Sam,
Ah, you can never get bored with the weather here!
Glad you liked the pictures. I had a look at your site, too. As I said in my comment, I have a connection with Pune as well.
Thanks for dropping by. Hope to see you here again.
Cheers

Hi Priyanka,
Glad you enjoyed the post. Your post on your own mother was a great read.
I hope you find my feedback - posted on your blog - useful. You can contact me here at any time if you have any queries at all.
Good luck

Hi Bart-Man,
Nice to hear from you. Sounds like we live in the same city, even tho we live at opposite ends of the world!
Keep smiling
David
Hi Debbie,
I'm with you. It's a great word. Old-fashioned, maybe, but very evocative.
Take care of DH and that boat!

Hi Shyguyx,
Interesting perspective. Thanks for sharing your opinion.
However, Melbourne's weather has always been highly unstable. That's what makes it so interesting.
Cheers

Just joking. I wish Canada were like that.
Hi Shyguyx,
No worries at all. I've made several trips to Canada - and find it a captivating country.
In fact, you'll find a lot of Canadian content throughout this blog. About 18 months ago, I photographed Quebec City, Montreal and parts of Muskoka for the Canadian Tourism Commission.
Love your country. In fact, it even features in my next novel.
Hope to see you back here again ....
Cheers
David
