    Entries for this year’s Easter Show Arts Competitions are meant to be lodged online by 5pm tomorrow. So of course, I left it til the last minute… and now I’m starin’ at this. MICROSOFT FAIL! I hope they fix it by tomorrow.

    14 Hours Later: It’s fixed! And my entry has been lodged. Phew.

    is so hot. Melting. Sweating.


    @crumpet The thermometer on my keychain is reading about 10 degrees higher! Sitting in a treeless field sucks.


    is relieved that the heat has broken. It’s actually quite pleasant now! There are now 10 of us knitting away…

    Andrew, Tia and I have set up camp in the Domain! It’s sweltering. We are cowering in the shade.

  • Opera in the Domain

    It’s time for Opera in the Domain again! I’m getting packed to head out and sit in a treeless park all day long with a bunch of knitters. Current temperature: about 80F, set to rise even further. I’m prepared.
