    What is YOUR weather like today??

    Ground Hog Day. Hot, sticky and unpleasantly so. Just have to cop it on the chin, no use in complaining! 34 *C forecast for Brisbane and the coastal south-east.

    What is YOUR weather like today??

    33*C in South East Queensland. High humidity makes it seem hotter. Chance of rain later today. Cyclone Trevor is expected to cross the N QLD coast this afternoon, Category 3 and intensifying. Wind up around the 200 km per hour have been recorded according to some sources. One would not wish to...

    What is YOUR weather like today??

    Much the same as yesterday. Cloudy, humid and 29*. More rain ( (90% chance) and a forecast for possible thunderstorms late afternoon/evening. It is amazing how green out little island has tuned in the past few days. M

    What is YOUR weather like today??

    Weather, as you expect, much the same as yours, Ron31*C, or thereabouts and horribly humid, which is not helping my present bout of bronchitis! All the inhabited southern Moreton Bay islands have an independent water supply piped from deep aquifers located on N. Stradbroke Island. It is of...

    How long does it take Stelara to work?

    That is a much more practical idea. As an old long retired RN, drawing up injectable medication is not a problem, but that said it would be handy to have the prepacked product here. Cheers, Merv

    How long does it take Stelara to work?

    There is virtually no pain with the injections (2x45mg). The easiest sites are on the upper outer quadrant of the thigh, or slightly below the navel line in the abdomen. I'm not sure how Stelara is marketed in the USA, but here in OZ, we have small ampoules. It is a little bit fiddly to draw...

    What is YOUR weather like today??

    Sure is, but not necessarily unusual for this time of year. A cleansing ale around 'beer o clock' helps!

    What is YOUR weather like today??

    Much the same as Ron reported. I guess we will not see much of a change until April.

    What is YOUR weather like today??

    A trifle cooler, but higher temperatures forecast for next week, A few showers, nothing serious, unfortunately. On the downside, the guys that cleaned out the Phone. Internet connection pit outside my property were kind enough to advise me that we have a Brown snake mitt momma and at least two...

    Sorry. Double post. More evidence of senility! Merv

    What is YOUR weather like today??

    You are quite right Carol, WA does not have DLS! Our grandchildren live there and the time difference is that we in Queensland are + 2 hours. Put this error down to my increasing senility! Today is cloudy and around 28/29 *C, pleasant with the chance of a morning shower. Still warm for Autumn...

    What is YOUR weather like today??

    NTR from here. Buff, at least, I hope you don't have to contend with being a State that refuses to fall into line with the other States that do have daylight saving! Queenslanders imagine that an extra hour of sunlight prematurely fades the curtains and disrupts cow milking! That said, Perth...

    What is YOUR weather like today??

    Overcast, cool and with a gentle breeze. Autumn has arrived here b, but so in the south and west of the continent which is in the throes of a heatwave. We are still awaiting some decent rain, but the forecast is for a return to warmer conditions of the next week. Merv

    What is YOUR weather like today??

    We are further south than Ron, but the wind is increasing. We live on a Bay island, however, barring a tsunami, we don't flood ( no streams or rivers). Thus far not a drop of rain, just winds of around 30 knots. Tomorrow could be interesting. Passenger and vehicle ferries have been cancelled...

    What is YOUR weather like today??

    Much cooler, courtesy of SE winds, What cyclone "Oma might do is in the lap of the gods. All we need is rain, sans the high winds. 30*C today, but felt less so. Cheers, M

    What is YOUR weather like today??

    Appreciably cooler today, still around 30*C, but tempered by a brisk SE wind (25-30 Knts) and overcast grey skies. Last night it was over 30 degrees in the early hours of the morning! More windy conditions forecast which, hopefully, will ground the mosquitoes and damned sand flies.

    Small intestine resection - glad you did it?

    Hi MM, In answer to your question, once I returned home I resumed my normal diet. My discharge was delayed due to a complication, so I guess it was about four days post op until I was able to eat what I wanted. As you quite rightly state, we are all different in terms of what we can or cannot...
