Seriously, I hope Australia doesn't have the fire issues that California did.

The weather in Geordieland is a total contrast...

The Geordie Temperature Scale (Celsius):

10 degrees - Southerners turn on the heating - Geordies plant gardens.

4 degrees - Southerners shiver uncontrollably - Geordies sunbathe.

1 degrees - Southern cars will not start - Geordies drive with the windows down.

-6 degrees - Southerners wear coats, gloves and wool hats - Geordies throw on a T-shirt (girls start wearing mini-skirts instead of bikinis).

-10 degrees - Southern landlords turn up the heating - Geordies have the last BBQ before it gets cold.

-17 degrees - Southerners begin to evacuate - Geordies go swimming in the North Sea.

-25 - Southerners cease to exist - Geordies throw on a lightweight jacket.

-60 degrees - Polar bears wonder if it's worth it - Geordie boy scouts start wearing long trousers.

-75 degrees - Santa Claus abandons the North Pole - Geordies put on their long johns.

-113 degrees - alcohol freezes - Geordies get frustrated because the pubs are shut.

-182 degrees - Microbial life starts to disappear - The cows on Newcastle Town Moor complain of farmers with cold hands

-273 degrees - All atomic motion stops - Geordies start to stamp their feet and blow on their hands.

BREAKING NEWS

Reece has melted! The puddle of Reece was rushed off to the South Pole for major rehydration. Reece is reported to be well and merry drinking beer and eating kangaroo burgers.

-9 and dropping but this means snow stays on ground and offers some help to alleviate this persistent darkness. At least playing sh3 is fun...
