    I can safely say that standing at the jetty on Russell Island at 4 am is damn cccccccoooolllddddd. I imagine a fair few of you won’t even be rising for another couple of hours. I wanna be in your nice snug warm bed right now.

    Hmmmm I could re-word that…Well anyway by the time you get up, it will still be cold by the looks of things due to the wind chill factor. The coldest wind chill factor I have ever worked in was minus 15. And yes that is very very cold. So I suppose I shouldn’t complain.

    Damn it’s cold.

      Up at 3am for me, and yes, it has gradually gotten colder over the last couple hours. Not as cold as being on a jetty as I can imagine, but still chilly.

        Why are you up so early ?

        I’ve found a spot out of the breeze. I have also found a strip of sun rising between storage tanks. Still bloody cold. Beanie “and” hoodie right now.

          Why are you up so early ?

          I start work at 5am. Takes me about an hour to wake up and get ready, and then about 30 to 40 minutes to get to work.

          And yes, I had the beanie on this morning.

      Got up this morning and as soon as that first crisp morning air rolled in the window I was like… damn, this is definitely a day that delosmercedes will be committing to the beanie.

      Cant blame you with the way that wind was/is carrying on. Had to pee from about a foot to the right of the dunny to account for wind speed this morning.
