Flotsam & Jetsam

Letter From The Editor

Oh. My. God. It is so hot here that the air conditioner has packed it in after a blissful hour this morning of good behaviour, and then the internet blew up until just now. And we have so much to talk about! Shall we binge together, like eager teenage girls, until we’re fit to burst into a plastic bag that is then buried in the backyard*?

Send me your cool vibes. Oh, and also? Assure me that Adelaide in late February is positively breezy. Adelaide doesn’t get hot, right? Please don’t make me visit bom.gov.au and have a nervous breakdown. Feel free to suggest great things to do in Radelaide on February 20th and February 21st too.

Yours humbly and sweating like a Corby through Customs**,

Jess

*Wow, those articles I used to read in teen girl magazines about eating disorders really were a How To guide, weren’t they?

**Bad joke made so much worse with Corby reference! I apologise. This hateful weather is not helpful when it comes to wit.

    Hate to say it, our heatwave last year was actually in March, 15 days over 35. Next week won’t get below 38, and is back to 40 by next Thursday. May the force be with you…

    Here in Fremantle it’s a pleasant 30 with plenty o’ cloudcover and the afternoon sea breeze just beginning to stir the trees, while the birds whistle merrily and children romp through the final, blissful hours of their summer holiday. Yesterday was an unseasonably mild 26, with light morning drizzle, and … Oh God, I’m so sorry.

    What a jerk.

    ED: I AM GOING TO HUNT YOU DOWN AND KILL YOU. WHEN IT GETS A BIT COOLER.

    Hot nights are best spent in the garden of unearthly delights in late February.
    Yep
