I lived in Singapore and Malaysia before Oslo and remember these storms vividly. They used to come on so fast and then disappear just as quickly

Yeah the storms are one of the toughest parts of my last job working on the roads doing traffic control. Hot as hell in summer & the usual afternoon downpour to throw a spanner in the works.

Those pictures are amazing.

We don’t get storms here and I finding myself missing seeing those clouds coming in like that. They may only last a short time but they can mess things up big time. The last couple of places I lived in were in apartments and the views were great for storm watching.

Cheers that was on Friday & fortunately it wasn’t a bad one. We’re getting 1-2 storms a week probably overall but sometimes it’s every day.

But when the storms pass this is what we get. Welcome to summer in the tropics

January is miserable in the UK isn't it? At least here in Oslo there are winter activities available pretty much on your doorstep, so it makes the winters a lot more enjoyable than the ones I did in the UK - though at that point I didn't have kids, so pretty much just spent them in the pub

It’s the early sunsets that have really got me. Having the sun disappear at 3.30 in the afternoon is horrible. But then I do enjoy having the sun out until 9.30 in the summer, when the sun does come out of course which isn’t as much as I’m used to. SB will get that living in Queensland, blue skies and sun pretty much everyday.

Such a brilliant place - loved the fact that its cooler, has mountains and the ocean, excellent seafood, brilliant wine and now some pretty good whisky

All in a small 200k main city

Not sure I'd live there but an awesome place to spend a couple of weeks

It’d be nice to spend a month or two down there to get away from the humidity of the GC summer but winters would be bleak

I’m in Harrogate in England at the moment.

Only been to Tassie once & absolutely loved it. I’d hoped to visit again when I did the Gold Coast to Great Ocean Road road trip 14 months ago but the wife could only get 2.5 weeks holiday & the $1100 return car ferry couldn’t be justified for such a short trip.

Portsmouth have signed another young Aussie. Hayden Matthews from Sydney, he’s young CB.

He started this morning & Waddingham off the bench.

Glad for a title to head to Tassie - love my trips to Hobart

Yeah an absolute master class of T20 batting. Yeah 11 x6’s & 4x4’s from memory.

Yeah miss cooking on the BBQ big time. Used to use it all the time. Out on the deck cooking up some lamb, burgers or a steak. Used to live at the bottom of Mount Coot-Tha and would have all sorts of things wondering around outside the house and we’d be feeding the Kookaburras. Hoping to move back soon, missing the weather and lifestyle.

Where are you living now?
