because we have typhoons

a typhoon has hit Shoalwater, namely in our living room.
After tiring of heading for the record of least amount of cooling devices in a suburban dwelling, we have finally installed ceiling fans.
Not just any old fans of the Bunnings type; you see my Lindsay likes to wait to afford to buy the best.

We have TYPHOONS !!!

We carefully chose the biggest, strongest, most 'air flow-ness' possible.
Their size, shape and aesthetic value bore no relevance by comparison and the fact that we now have that trendy industrial look in our untrendy house is to be dealt with when the novelty wears off.
  As the temperature rises and we "hit the switch" the typhoons whip their magic across our sweltering bodies. AAAHHHH
This magic extends to drowning out the T.V. and any idea of conversation is rudely interrupted!
Q. What's black and white and read all over the lounge room?
A. Our newspaper - left on the coffee table when the typhoon hit!

Well, OK,  there are some drawbacks -  never fear - because there is one thing I DO know and that is  how important it is to be 'COOL' !!

Peace out man.
I'm off to batten down.

  1. Hi Jo,
    good to see you've started blogging. It really is a lot of fun! I love your writing style.

    Would love any 'vintage' patterns if you have some kicking around. It's weird to think that some of the things I'm making for the kids now will one day be vintage!! I wonder what will be in fashion for my grandkids?!
