Had cause to travel to Brisbane this morning. While down there, I decided to buy another tank.

The collection is growing, much to my Wifes dismay.
These little things are great! Can't believe I didn't discover them sooner.

At time of writing this, it is about 0005hrs here, and I have just finished adding all the detail and accessories onto the tank. We have had a very mild winter.........until now. In checking my weather station I see it is already below 3 degrees Celsius. By sunrise it could have gone below freezing point. Have just stepped outside onto the lanai to see how cold it feels, and I didn't hang around there long. Time to hit the hay, with an extra blanket, for sure.
