January has been very windy here. Virtually every day we have had gale force winds, as well as nice 70 degree temperatures and sun every day. You may think its an ideal climate, sunny, not too hot, nice breeze, but you have to try extreme painting - have been trying to paint the outside of the house for a month, painting often scuppered by wind - it blows the paint off your brush. Also extreme hanging out of washing - it blows away whilst trying to peg it (next door had to bring Mark's cycling shorts back from his garden last week). Jasper cat not happy either as it blows him down the garden. Watering the garden is a challenge as it blows back - nice way to have a cold shower. So Wellington is fantastic, but no doubt you will be pleased to know its not too perfect - but rather extreme living here in Houghton Bay on the South Coast. (well what do you expect when you buy a house at the top of a hill overlooking Cook Straight you may say!).
