Hmn -not sure if this is the place for this post, but my wife kindly gave me kangaroo steaks last night - not bad at all - you might even say Ripper!

(or at least us pale Poms might)

yep, that is appreciating all things Aussie ...

Strewth 50deg! ? ! that would be a tad warm ?!

Ha ! luckily no.. in winter gets down to 10degC !

It's far from a daily meal for Australians but yeah everyone's tried Kangaroo at least once. I think an equivalent would be eating snails if you're French - Yes it's nice but you don't do it every day. Also try Emu and 'Bush Turkey' for some nice gamey meat.

Damn, that's hot. You should cook the brain.
Here we are in summer and what you see below is the immediate prognosis.

We're lucky ... most we ever get is mid-30's

 

[robslion]

My next winter FSX adventure project is a "Down Under Tour" to discover Australia.

I am at the moment finishing my 2014 "Aeropostale" adventure, flying now between Santiago in Chile to La Paz in Bolivia. I will finish South America by flying down the Amazon river with some amphibian plane.

 

[Ithikial]

So coming to visit in our summer? Yeah around January - March, hope you enjoy heat.

 

[Corsaire31]

Fortunately it will be virtual heat...
