Thank You and Best Wishes also to you.

Happy Christmas and best wishes for the new year, may that be a healthy one! I hope you'll be able to stitch and sew more - I loved your biscornus and sock puppets, and not to forget your fuchsia embroideries.

I also loved the biscornus and sock puppets and your love of fuchias

When I sell any Biscornus at a Market I have a sign saying Biscourn/Pincushion and it is amazing how many people ask what is a Biscornu.

Thanks and I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas. Make it happen and be sure to set up stitching dates with your friend. what a wonderful way to spend a day.

24th here in Adelaide is expected to be 39C Then on Christmas Day possible showers and 29C. Thought I was going to miss Christmas as I have to travel and was not going to go if it was too hot as I just know some idiot would light a fire while I was away. I am in a fire prone area.

Hi mi30kaja, I feel for you, I too am in S.A down South in Woodcroft, and I can tell you it is Hot Hot Hot. We don't even let our Cat Gizmo out when it goes over 30 degrees. To hot for any Animal. Hope that you & your Family have a safe & Happy Christmas.
Regards Lorraine

Only problem is that she lives the other side of town.

Have a happy holiday season and enjoy the warmth. I am totally in winter here, so I am sending cooler thoughts your way!

Dear Lynn, I've been thinking of all my South Aussie mates. How horrendously hot it has been there for the past week. My Mum's best friend is in her 80's and she says she just can't take it any more. One of her oldest friends had a place up at Pinery where those dreadful bushfires were last week and the lady wrote that most of the surrounding properties around her are all gone. They were fortunate and had wet the whole house and area down as they could see the fires coming. Trev only said to me this afternoon aren't we glad we left South Australia and live up here on the east coast of NSW? I said yes, as we are still far enough east not to get those dreadful storms that have devastated Sydney this week. What a week it has been for the weather. And of course our poor Northern Hemisphere neighbours are freezing. I've just been asleep for over 2 hours - Trev looked after Ophelie and Delphi for me, just couldn't cope anymore. Mind you I spent 4 hours this morning cleaning out that lovely china cabinet in our kitchen and took everything we had in excess down to the Op Shop. They were most appreciative. I hope you get to have lots of sewing days with your friend and her new machine, how exciting? Have a wonderful cool Christmas if at all possible. Love Chris

On this side of the Atlantic we are having the warmest months in recorded history. November was 5 degrees C above the monthly average, temperatures are now around 15C while 6C is average. We have had worse days in summer.

by mi30kaja 18 Dec 2015

Wish it was 15C here. Thought Christmas was going to one to forget as Thursday is going to be 39C ---- but today they have said Christmas Day is expected to be 29C with possible showers.
