    Default Summer's here!

    G'day everyone,

    Firstly, I hope that everyone has had a great Christmas, and are ready for a terrific New Year bash. (Mind, I wouldn't object to it being 1999 right now, as I made a nice ($) go out of Y2K ).

    Anyway, I've been 'faffing' around in the shed - as one might expect during the hols, and it has come to my attention that summer may be here.

    Yesterday and Wednesday weren't too bad, only got up to 36 ~ 38C in the shed, but today - whew! I was driven out by a little after 1pm when the thermometer was showing 43C - and climbing:eek: Blerry tin roof - and all those halogen lights!

    Tomorrow is supposed to be even hotter DAHMKIT! It does slow down the work a bit, especially when I keep visting the coldie-cooler

    Cheers!

    I'd get all upset over that, but I know you don't care enough to mean it.

    Yesterday I found a stick of buffing compound had melted and then solidified in to the shape of the container it was stored in. No idea how hot it has to be to do that but it must be bloody HOT!

    Serious Question Time:

    I waxed the car yesterday, the carnabua (?spelling) wax had melted in the shed. After the car is buffed, won't the wax melt off next time it gets hot?
