I realize that I may be the only pedant on this list but it would be El Nino or La Nina. If I were more pedantic, or less lazy, I'd figure out how to type the n with the ~, for example there is a significant difference between "feliz an~o nuevo" and "feliz ano nuevo".

Never thought I would see the day. This was by far the hottest day we

with Tue, Wed & Thurs at 42. The Lowveld, its People & the game could
be in big trouble. Not a drop of rain in the last month.
