Springtime

Packed winter clothes ready for colder weather. Have not worn any of them and all of our coats and jumpers are laughing at us from the depths of our suitcases stashed in the hotel cupboards  So it is definintely springtime when it is 20 degrees and sunny every day. I've been out walking early most mornings. Much earlier than usual and feeling very virtuous about it as well - even though really it is just a case of jet lag not wearing off.

What I have noticed about what people are wearing
Melbourne ladies like to wear FULL ON OLYMPIC MARATHON POWER WALKING gear. It is hilarious. I am the only person walking around wearing normal clothes, and these women and yummy mummies are all wearing the same uniform. Long black leggings, with a go-faster stripe usually, black high neck sports top with long sleeves.  There is obviously a trend here for black and they are not letting go.  It is almost a rule. My bright pink pashmina gets some looks. Daggers usually.

You're only going on a walk sweetie, not training for London 2012. Bloody Hell.
