Perth 125

Yesterday was the longest day in the UK and it looks like summer has finally decided to put in an appearance. Official forecasts are predicting temperatures rising to 26 degrees Celsius within the next few days. Which is a positive sign; although my (uncalibrated) weather station has already announced this has been exceeded in a shady spot in my garden. Sounds like a good excuse to wear shorts and sandals to me LOL.

Anyway, whilst thinking of fantastic weather, the postman delivered a lovely little prize at lunchtime from the land DownUnder. 

Australia's Perth Mint are celebrating 125 years and to mark the occasion have released some lovely coins. This silver proof offering bares His Majesty King Charles III, plus on the reverse three emblems reflecting Australia. We have a Koala (not a bear), a Kookaburra and a Roo in the centre.

 Happy days.
