    Hi Mole (RD-S)
    I thought I'd chip in because your readers might like to know that we have a page over on Facts About Durban concerning this issue of Parade. Included are scans of the article about Durban and the text of the article. Makes interesting reading: https://www.fad.co.za/Resources/parade/parade.htm
    I hope you're well. Here is Brisbane we've had 36 days in an row where the temperature has gone over 30deg.
    Cheers
    Allan
