Gaucho, are we going to have roller coaster weather until September? I want to bust out the ol' shorts and, in true EEUU fashion, flip flops.

Same here. Just back from the Mid-day Asado and in about an hour I'll jump on the car to the afternoon Asado. Busy time here, and tomorrow there will be an even bigger one out in the Sierras. I'll have to stop eating next week

Yes the forecast for the week ahead is for very warm weather during the day although cool at night so I would still bring a woolly jumper. Only needs for the wind to swing round and it can all change again.

Wonderful day today and I'm on parrilla duty after a ride on the bike. ^

Dear BUE friends, reading about asados, provoletas and beverages makes me want to catch the first flight to Argentina. Also flipping cold weather works for me! (We are melting here in BCN Arrgghhh!!!)
Anyway I've missed the last FT meeting for a few days. Is it any plan for a new one?
Cheers! and enjoy your asados

Wasn't all that keen on the provoleta I have to say last time I had it.

I love the weather we are having here at the moment. Daffodils are flowering in the garden,willow trees are getting greener and I can sit out in the sun without burning and getting bitten my mosquitos. ^
