Currently in the Philippines, wet season. That means 95 degrees and raining (that's 100% humidity) and I'll still take it over the cold!<br /><br />Chris.....

Re: Man it's hot

RodC<br /><br />I lived up north of perth for a few years (Carnarvon) and lived with the humidity. Get out of the shower and you cant get dry. I miss the heat but not the humidity, but then I prefer being hot and humid to cold.<br /><br />It is winter here and 15c. to me that is cold, though not as cold as it was on top of Big Bear or the Remarkables.<br /><br />Luckily each day is one day closer to the "ton" returning.<br /><br />GR

Re: Man it's hot

Nothing wrong with the cold. I like the change of seasons. Keeps things interesting and presents a whole new set of challenges. When its cold, you can always add more layers till you get warm but when its hot, you can only remove so much then people start staring :D . I like the cold, even down to about -25C is fine as long as there is no wind. The wind is brutal when its that cold. Spent many a day ice fishing at -15C to -20C.

It's 18C (about 65F) here today. Yesterday was 70, not a breath of wind and the water like a mirror all day. Not bad for the Winter Solstice weekend. Boat went to the dealer today to fix some corrosion under the 27MHx antenna mount - warranty job as the mount was replaced last year and someone forgot the duralac! Hopefully next weekend will be as nice as this one. Boy, we could use some rain though... Sydney water supply down to 38% capacity! :(

Re: Man it's hot

Yes I can Andrew but your question is in the wrong forum, but I'll proceed - sorry JB.<br /><br />Sea foam is a brand name which isn't found in Australia, what you need is a decarbanising fluid. Pop into baronia marine, they got plenty of mercury & OMC branded decarbs (the brand doesn't really matter, as long as it's 2 stroke compatible).<br /><br />IF you are the same Andrew Hartley that I'm thinking of, we were mates in high school, good mates! Care to guess??

I'll shot you an e-mail.<br /><br />I mentioned Baronia marine because it's in the silvan area but any marine store will carry decarb.<br /><br />Aldo

104 here today and supposed to stay that way all week and clear blue skies. I could use a cloud or two now. Southern states send some of your moisture over here. :D <br />Bassy
