The forecasts for Tuesday were sunshine but
record-breakingly scary temperatures : 41° for Adelaide, 40s° for
Melbourne, and a comparatively mild low-30s° for Sydney. Undeterred, we'd planned a day-trip north-west up to the Hunter Valley to continue our wineries-of-the-world tour
and to swell yet further the contents of F&G's new impressive cellar.
Sure enough, a shiny blue morning dawned, and lovely
it stayed while we visited some glorious scenery at four vineyard tasting rooms
and loaded ourselves down with a fair few boxes.

Only complaint of the day : we saw several "wombat crossing"
traffic signs but not a sniff of a sighting ...
PS the temperatures were worse than expected : 46° in
Adelaide, 43° in Melbourne, 39° in Canberra. Apparently hottest for 110 years. Fingers crossed
that it calms down.
