    Merry New Decade

    Firstly i don't know whether to thank Australia for the new year/decade gift they've given us or not, yellow skies.

    https://www.facebook.com/OtagoDailyT...59092730099691 (lots of user submitted photos)

    Kinda creepy, it's 10am here, and still darkish and everything is yellow, like a sepiaish filter. Tried capturing it with the camera but didn't come out too well.

    Time the Aussies got a break, a few weeks of light rain would be a good idea.

    Anyway, here's to another 10 years with you freaks.

    Sunset last night. 'Double' sun is either cos of window double glaze, or the camera may have done it's three photos combined into one trick. Was redder than it looks in pic.

    Just after 9am, with the highlighted grass, trees etc. Supposed to be a sunnyish day today...

    And 10am, 20 mins ago.
    _DSC2149 (1920x1280).jpg

    Those pics don't show how bad it really is.

    Early Happy New Year and Decade to everyone!

    For those going out tonight to party and celebrate, make sure to be smart and safe. Don't drink and drive. Arrive alive at home and not at the hospital or police station...or the morgue.

    I still go by 0-9 as it seems more logical, even if its not right.

    Yup. Ordinals work from 1 to 10.

    Still, Happy New 365-ish period of arbitrary time in units of 24 hours!

    It's the 20's either way.

    Let's completely ignore the consequences of our actions until it all blows up in our faces again!

    Should be fine RWA.

    Edit: Here's a better representation of our Aussie gift taken this morning (not by me). Spot the Mercedes AMG GT.
