Let me tell you it is meant to be summer in NZ, so far i have still had to put the heater on on occasion, today it is only 19 degrees c and it is windy and rainy, we have had so much wind, have not even been able to sit outside on the verandah and have dinner as i planned on our table and chairs with our fairy lights and candle,was to be romantic, yeah right, too cold, even had to sit in the car on a picnic too cold to venture out and too windy.

We really only have jan and feb left of our real summer, both those months are usually the hottest, and march can be too depending, although usually cooler in evenings and mornings, so far all our evenings and mornings are just like march-april weather cool, now i hate the heat myself, but even i am complaining, i do want a little bit of summer weather before winter hits us again.
