In many ways, the weather yesterday was just perfect, perfect for a public holiday that is. Rainy, not really cold, but cool enough that no air conditioners were needed, and all the doors and windows could be thrown open in order to invite fresh air to enter and to swirl through the house, expelling the hot air caught up in the house over the previous few weeks when temperatures hovered around 38 degrees Celsius.
