Before they tiled the showers and put a divider between them and laid on hot water (yes, they used to be cold only), back in 2009, the temperature of the shower water was NOT for the faint hearted in November!

We are suffering in 27 degrees (well that's what's promised - eventually) today. It's 18 now, but supposed to get down to 16 with showers tonight in Norseman WA.

Well, we got home, the poor girl was running like a greyhound with a broken leg by the time we got here though. To add to the excitement, the wiring in the inverter decided to let out lots of smoke, a loose connection internally turned out to be the cause but what a mess. We have been so spoilt with elect blankets and pod coffees etc that the thought of doing it tough was more than we could bear, so 3 hrs repairing the inverter while parked up at Oallen Ford with the temp dropping to 3 deg before I got it working again meant the last night on the road was as eventful as the rest of them :lol:
We were greeted by the aroma of 2 fridge freezers that had defrosted possibly the day after we left, 5 weeks ago, so the depression of being back home again was some what compounded, if Mazda was in better shape we may well have just back out the driveway again :twisted: Add to that, the same circuit breaker powers the solar hot water pumps, so no hot water for a shower either, gee it's great to be home :cry:
