im freezin here in Melly!!!
Hello
just to let you know, if you are moving to Aus, you HAVE to get a house with central heating...........
Its been freezing here on a night, we had 2 quilts on last night and a sheet and pyjamas and i was cold! This morning was even worse, it was 7 degrees and no heating!!!! :scared: how cold was i????
Thing is when you say you are cold, everyone replies with, "how can you be cold where you came fom?" Yes but we have central heatin on in England when its 7 degrees.........bbbrrrhhhhh.......
must say tho it does get out nice on the evenings, aswalked montu along the beach at 3.3o and sun was shining and it was nice and warm (about 20 degrees maybe???) just gets freezin on a night, we have been sat around a small fan heater, our lekky bill will be HUGE!!!

Doesn't anyone have reverse cycle air con down in Melbourne ?
I had it in each of my houses in Sydney, as I thought that was cold enough in Winter, but Melbourne would be even colder.
My average Electric cost in winter, (in Sydney) worked out at $5.30 per day, and that covered the R/C AirCon on all the time, aswell as all cooking and Hot water, as we didn't have Gas.

Re: im freezin here in Melly!!!
I'd guesstimate, that our reverse cycle air con, costs about 3 dollars to run over 24 hours, which ain too bad, seeing if thats all the heating one has, 3 bucks to keep warm !! (I know 'cos it costs about 3 bucks a day in the summer to cool)
Although, we have a gas wall furnace thing going full bore at present, has been most of the day (7 year old is home sick) backed up with a wood heater out here in this back room, consequently, whole house is warm, albeit slightly draughty, dammit when I polished the floors, I didn't plug the gaps properly lol.
If I had that gas heater on, close to 24/7 for a billing cycle, my gas bill would be around 300 bucks for about 2 months.

We've had stacks of sun this autumn(!) - people who say Melbourne is grey have never been in Autumn (!) I've loved this autumn thus far. Come mid winter it is quite grey at times.
