Ahha!  That's what I'm missing!  One of my daughters did a clean up in the
lounge room.  Now I know what to look for.  Don't worry, it is here.  :)

We're having trouble getting rid of it!  Let's see... it's just gone 18h00
on 10 May: I've still got the ceiling fans running, all the (usual) windows
and doors are open, and, I'm running around in a t-shirt and underwear. 
What's wrong with this picture other than the ugly mug typing this note?

Apparently there's a cold weather spell due.  I say 'fat chance', and am
backing the local TV weather guy's prediction of no proper autumn and a
warmer than usual winter.  We've already broken all above-average temps for
every month so far this year.

Look out!  I think you'll probably get the opposite: an abnormally cold summer.

Cheers,
Paul.
