Snow in Victoria and hailstones in Melbourne. Sydney dropping to 16 deg forecasted - and this is happening in summer !!!!

One more thing..
QVB - has started to celebrate xmas festive season by setting up the gigantic xmas tree. Just one point of note - don't understand how the tower clock has this feature of the convicts being flogged, punished based on the day of the week in the last photo.
See Link here. Why oh why do they celebrate convicts, something to be proud of in the heritage ?

Country that celebrates convicts !

Again in the Mitchell Library this Sunday - the exhibition -On the Run: Daring Convict Escapes celebrates the convicts who landed in aus. Most of the convicts who escaped either became bushrangers , harbored by the aboriginal ppl or were re-captured. It seems that if this goes on - the law and order of the land will never prevail - aus having the highest number of contact crimes in Asia Pacific.

Finally ! Rid of last molars !
Took out all the last molars I've yesterday. Been a patient wait - arrive at the hospital at 7:00 am but wait till 10:30 almost before the surgery began. The anaethesthic was supposed to last 4 hrs at least but I managed to wake up 1 hr immediately. Nice atmosphere in the hospital stayrooms though till almost 2:30 pm -Eastern Surburbs Priv Hospital Now its the last stages of recovery till next week - Hopefully no infections or bleeding by next week. Will I be less wise as a result ?
