Heat wave - 4 January 2014

Last Saturday, 4 January, we experienced the hottest summer, for many many years.  The whole state sweltered in 40degC+ for more than a week and then it was Brisbane's turn.  We had 44degC here.  I didn't go outside at all but had the luxury of airconditioning to keep me cooler, though the A/C did struggle and kept temperature down inside to 30degC.  We had planned to have a barbecue but postponed it till the next day when the temperature had dropped to a tolerable 30degC.  It was our first barbecue for 2014 and as usual it was delicious.  Terry is great at doing barbecues.
