So we think we are hard done by living in a week of "Antarctic" weather! I was in Mongolia for their worst winter in 30 years. In the capital, the temperature fell to -42 degrees. The first snow fell in late October, and the snowfalls didn't melt until April, when the temperatures finally got above zero. We had no rain over this period but occasional falls of icing sugar-like snow. It was worse in the countryside - about 27% of the livestock died.

So Auckland, you have had a bit of sleet. Well done John for standing on a windy hill, what a riviting week your programe is so far. Come live in Southland and watch rain drive sideways, is it any wonder you Jafas are the butt of the rest of the countrys jokes. HARDEN UP! Dave, From Gore.
