Being a Melbourne girl all my life, I am bringing clothes to cover all possibilities. Luckily I have no luggage weight restrictions!

My ideal weather is around 23-25c and cooler in the evenings. Yes indeed, I am a Southern gal

Just saw Mel-Bun on the TV news-hail everywhere, looks like a scene out of "The Day After Tomorrow" I was only going to bring a small backpack and suit, but now I have to add rain gear, thermal underwear, boots as well as thongs, tea-shirts, and jeans.

Global Flud. The god brigade prayed for no governments funding, and now they have got Thor on our case...my atheism is slipping away! LOL!

I wonder if they will be selling GAC gear at the convention, bit disorganised and didn't get around to buying any, too late now.

Sorta packed...

Did online check-in only to discover they've allocated us exit row - normally this would be a good thing but kazzaqldjnr is too young for exit row Sister who works for QF is sorting for us!

Discovered I hadn't printed out our passes yet and had minor heart failure as printer has been playing up for weeks. Finally changed toner it's been nagging about and whaddya know they print perfectly!

Have most of my clothes ready - have to chase up Mr kazzaqldjnr to get ready too. Mr kazzaqld is somewhat ready too!

OMG OMG It's soooo exciting.

Both, in quick succession.
I tend to favour the shorts, but being local, I have a different definition of cold to folks from further north.
The convention centre maintains a clement climate but the wider environment could throw anything your way.

I know. That bit about "Black clouds hanging over The Domain" is a dead giveaway!
Indeed.
Climatic agnostic would describe most amateur meteologists hereabouts nicely.
