Weird weather

Just three days ago we were sweltering in 35°C. Today was so cold that I had to pull out my woollen jumper again (“sweater” for US folks). It was very windy, which made the already cool temperature feel pretty cold.

A friend of mine has said on a few occasions that Sydney doesn’t have nice weather for spring. We have hot and cold days dithered together, early spring having more cold days and late spring having more hot days.

In between ethics classes I took Scully to the brand new park again. It’s a very nice place to sit and eat lunch. And there today I witnessed a Buridan’s Ass moment. A woman came into the park and was looking for a place to sit. She reached a point where there were two empty benches facing each other about 10 metres apart, and she was standing in the middle looking at first one, then the other, then back to the other one… She looked back and forth for maybe 30-40 seconds, before finally continuing to walk, and she eventually found another bench somewhere else.

This evening I had a nice Turkish dinner out with my wife. Hummus and flatbread, grilled haloumi, dolmades, and falafels.

And tonight we were supposed to have in-person board games night, but a few people are away travelling and we would have had three people at most, so we converted to online games and the travellers are joining in.
