We used to have a saying that went like this: "If you don't like the weather wait 1o minutes (it'll change.)" I no longer live in Maine but am in New Mexico, USA where it is usually sunny but often very dry, drought dry some years. Lately we are having a lot of rain, hail and thunder, which is good as we need the rain. As I was writing this I thought Mainers and Brits must have a lot in common as Mainers ALWAYS talk about the weather. We are obsessed with the weather. So this post made me chuckle...I so related.

However, very used to extreme changes in weather. You can strip off where you are, but Down Under our homes aren't equipped for the surprising cold weather. Many homes are made from weatherboard which is cool and light, with only the recent homes having central heating already built in. Sigh. Great photos!! Corblimey we have miserable drizzle today!
