So it is officially summer here in the southern hemisphere. Melbourne has done its typical boiling hot for a few days then needing to turn the heater on the next; well, they do say variety is the spice of life! Summer is when mother nature makes the temperature soar, and if you are like me, …
Looks like you haven't made a choice yet.
