Grace can have Darwin, I'll take the rain(I prefer stormy weather). Brenda E I am an aussie girl, live right here or near Perth.

I love storms and the rain, I used to walk my dog up a quarry during thunderstorms. Once lightning hit the next field over and I legged it back to town

Nice to see someone else down here in Australia likes the storms. I love it when it starts to hail I know it causes damage but the little kid in me still gets a thrill out of a good sudden thunderstorm with a little bit of hail

I just like the sound of the rain on the roof, the smell of it. I guess I am an england girl at heart(where my mum is from).

Did you happen across The Doctor fighting some Gel Monsters or Ogrons or perhaps some Cybermen?

I wish but somehow I think Rani or The Master might accept my brand of mayhem and chaos better then today's versions.

No I just love the sound the feel, the smell just how it changes everything. Summer afternoon storms where the best

Cindy / Grace / Nicole / Any other Aussies here:

I think we're all having a hard job summoning too many tears over the fact you girls are living in frickin' AUSTRALIA.  Us US girls would gladly swap your weather/crocodile/jellyfish woes for our creepy religious political bull->-bleeped-<- any day of the week.

Where do we sign up?

Heard of Tony Abbott?
This is a person, our Prime Minister that once said "God makes my choices".

This is the same person who said 2 years ago when the sitting PM's father died that the father died in shame of his daughter.
This is the same person who has a gay sister yet claims to be scared of gays.
This is the same person who during the last election said under him, there'll be no cuts to healthcare, no cuts to welfare & no new taxes.
Their first budget he now wants a $7 charge for doctor visits
Those under 30, if they lose their job, they'll go 6 months without getting a cent
The rich are taxed higher, we'll pay more for fuel and he blames everything he can on labor which past more bills & laws in the first 60 days in office than this prick has in 8 months.

Under Abbott, unless you're 30 to 50, white, male, straight and earn over $500k a year, you're in trouble

I was in Darwin for 24 hours in late March after spending a month in Thailand, Singapore & Bali and have to say not a fan.
Yes 32˚ every day would be great, but I hated it.
I've never felt so scared to be out on the streets during daylight in my life, and I spent 3 days in the red light part of Singapore and partied in Bangkok.

Nicole;

Darwin is a place for Blokes not Sheilas after dark - Too many US sailors wandering about plus the Aborigines all  boozed up. Even as a guy (pre transition) this is not a place to be wandering around except in the City Centre. So yes I agree with you. Also you haver to watch yourself even in the suburbs as when the wet is on you sometimes get the creeks flooding and the cocs get into the suburbs. Oh and don't swim in the sea - unless you want to get eaten!

I come on here, in part, to get away from the hideous individual that is Tony Abbott! Aaaarrgh! Don't start me on the others!!

Yes let's not get started on Adolf...sorry Tony Abbott.

Apparently it was raining all day today and I slept through it.
