Apparently it's raining heavily with a 22km/hr southerly breeze.A photo of the actual current conditions in Newtown, taken from my balcony.

I was thinking of the Rocky Horror Picture Show pool orgy scene, actually!
A group of heavily made-up people dressed in corsets, feather boas, and high heels, all having a great time in a pool. The pool is (presumably) heated. So is, uh, the action.

View across Lambton Harbour, Wellington, NZ. Taken yesterday morning, just after sunrise. #photo #nofilter 📷
You're gazing across a calm harbour at a row of tall office buildings, glowing golden in the early morning sunlight. The sky is blue, there's no wind, and it looks like there's a beautiful day ahead. Behind the buildings, you can see a row of dark tree-covered hills. Everything is serene.

#Wellington peeps! If you're worried about the state of our health service, and in particular its drastic underfunding by the current government, you should absolutely donate to the Wellington Hospitals Foundation (whf.org.nz)!
Paper cup with the logo of the Wellington Hospitals Foundation. Text underneath reads "Official charity for Wellington Regional & Kenepuru Hospitals, Te Wao Nui Child Health Service & Hospital, Kapiti Health Centre, and Mental Health, Addictions and Intellectual Disability Service. Raising funds for medical equipment, research, services, and comfort items that aren't government funded." There is also a QR code for the WHF donation page.
