Its not hot every place here. Just a few in the center. The global warming mob are having a field day.
Cattle being shot is more to do with live cattle export bans that were put in place for a while. Animal rights individuals have a lot to answer for.
Its mid summer here & I have winter clothes on (9.00 am). Will be shorts & short sleeved shirt after lunch.
