Re: To damn hot, whats pont of beautiful country if its to hot to enjoy
I'm sitting next to the radiator, looking out at a cold, wet and grey morning. I would rather be spending my money keeping the house cool than on gas and electric keeping it warm.
I suppose I could always put some more coal on the fire to save on the gas or just sit here with a coat on and save my money.

a) Stats suggest Aussies work more hours than Brits
b) The sun will give you skin cancer if you stay outside for extended periods regularly
c) The heat is basically uncomfortable and unpleasant for many, many weeks of summer. It drains you and wears you out.
It's easier to warm up in cold weather than cool down in hot weather.

Are you stuck here.
Is there an option to move to a more suitable climate? Your a lucky man if you do have a choice.

I've been here four years and think I've felt 'too hot' about four times in that time and we very rarely use air con as we don't like it.
Where are you that's so unbearably hot?

It's bound to be Sydney.. I spent over 10 years in Sydney, and 7 in Queensland, and the only 40+ days that I have known were down in Sydney
