glad things are looking good for you! |
I'm from canada, Drop Bear! :D
|
Ahh cool, where abouts in Canadia Land are you from? I hear that the east coast is mighty fecking cold?
And cheers Hummy! Its looking positive, but nothing for certain yet either, its just a possibility at this stage. I went back to see him today and he said he was going to see his accountant and stuff that afternoon, so im hoping thats a positive sign that hes looking into things. He said he's heard a lot of people say theyre keen before, and was actually surprised that i showed up again after the initial chat, apparently most dont? I think im making pretty good impressions thus far! |
Speaking of cold! I can't believe it's August still. So mild! What the fudge-y hot sundae!
|
BadJelly Sundae had nothing to do with your weather Woody! [:P]
Also, its JUST starting to get nice sorta weather here actually. As in not too hot, and not freezing the balls of my brass monkey anymore sorta cold! [lol] |
good impressions hopefully get you far. |
It's still pretty cold here considering it's almost September.
|
We all know "cold" for your area is like 60 degrees >.<
That's GLORIOUS weather, lol. Perfect for hiking and fun stuffs. It's back up in the 80s today here...which isn't bad, since it's not humid or anything. |
LOL, I'm really bad at remembering how to convert celsius to fahrenheit and vice versa so I had to user an online converter. 60 degrees is about 15 degrees celsius, which is cold but not overly cold for where I live. Cold days can be as cold as 10 degrees and cold nights have been as cold as 4.
|
We've had a few 0*C nights here, but further inland where my mates went to hang with some other friends for a weekend (about 5hrs away from here) it was apparently -7*C and my mate is planning to go back this weekend, and its predicted to be -9*C [lol]
|
yeh, it's been -2 here in the past, but just didn't happen this year for whatever reason. -9 is very cold.
|
-9*C (15.8*F) is pretty freaking cold, yes! Thats thermals weather right there. Particularly thermal undies i think! [lol]
Im planning a trip to Melbourne with the missus next month for her friends wedding. Going to (hopefully) catch up with a friend down there too and spend a night roaming about. Going to be a little pricey though because of the dicking around we have to do for the wedding. Its in one location, supposed to be staying in another location, and then a couple of hours away and theres busses involved and shit and its just going to be a pain in the ass with how its been organised, so we're doing our own thing. |
Ok 15 degrees F. is pretty cold, I'll give you that. I think the worst temps I've encountered living in Vermont were like -10 to -15 (-26C) with a wind chill in the -20s and -30s. We had one SERIOUSLY horridly bitter winter. And, the city I lived in was on a hill, at the edge of a valley with the Green Mountains behind us and Lake Champlain and the Adirondack Mountains in front of us...... But that is super extreme.... I guess the average winter temps around me now would be hovering near 0 C and lower.

That's a pretty scenic picture but I'm not sure I'd want to live there.
|
It was fun to walk on Church Street, a pedestrian only street with shops and restaurants, in the winter. Very pretty! Full of lights and the smell of...roasting coffee beans, oddly enough. There were a lot of coffee shops that roasted their own there
|
Man, my brass monkey started shivering just LOOKING at that much snow!
Doesnt help im actually sitting here topless right now and theres a small breeze giving me a chill i guess lol! Also, -26*C is FREAKING INSANE! I dont think i know of a place here thats had temps that low, but i dont discount its entirely possible in the south of Victoria or Tassie even. Brass Monkey just booked flights to Hawaii to avoid any future problems with temps like that lol! Its actually been rather windy here the last couple of days too. Not cold or hot exactly, just windy! I was supposed to talk to that bloke about the job this week, i tried to call a couple of times, but couldnt get hold of him, and ive been working heaps this week and havent had a chance to see him either. |
-26 is insane. I'm glad that was not the norm...but the wind always played a factor there >< So it always felt colder. I bought a special super poofy down coat just for walking to class.
Annnnd put some clothes on [illgetu] you're blinding us all! ;) Man, I wanna go to Hawaii just to see the volcanoes >.< I had job issues too! I was stood up accidentally when I was supposed to meet this woman for nannying. She emailed me like, an hour before and said there was a family emergency. Yah, stinks that I didn't see that |
Ill talk to old mate on monday hopefully. If not, hopefully my paints and clays turn up and ill be able to get my art on!
Also Woodlandnymph: I'll be sorting out that little thing i was talking to you about a couple of weeks ago and getting that ball in motion if I can. Will let you know once its all underway. Off to hob-nob with some local politician types tonight too. Friends of the missus are running for local mayor here and they want to meet me apparently. Shall be an interesting night, hopefully i dont make too big a dick of myself lol! |
Cool! I am all set for that, just let me know when you place the order and all that jaaaaazz
Eh, I don't think you'll make TOO much of an arse out of yourself ;) |
I think i did alright actually with meeting them. Theyre really nice people from what ive seen.
|
:D Nice
You seem like the person who would get along with lots of different types |
I can but try. If they dont like me, their problem. :P
|
*nod* I feel that way too. If they don't like me, they're missing out
|
Kinda like sex! :P
|
Juuuuuuuuuuust like it. Hahaha. >.<
