Happy Birthday from me too Craig, well not just yet. The 14th.a
Interesting. Thanks for the explanation Terry. I did think it was something like in the second pic.It's freezing on cold clear winter nights here in Perth now. 1C only in my suburb recently.
Cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey
The phrase originated from the use of a brass tray, called a "monkey", to hold cannonballs on warships in the 16th to 18th centuries. When it got really cold the cannon balls would slip off the brass monkey.
A great old phrase that passed the test of time til now at least. I like it.
