You know it's Summer in Western Australia when...

The best parking place is determined by shade instead of distance.

Hot water now comes out of both taps.

You can make sun tea instantly.

You learn that a seat belt buckle makes a pretty good branding iron.

The temperature drops below 35C and you feel a little chilly.

You discover that in February it only takes 2 fingers to steer your car.

You discover that you can get sunburned through your car window.

You actually burn your hand opening the car door.

You break a sweat the instant you step outside at 6:00a.m.

Your biggest bicycle wreck fear is, "What if I get knocked out and end up
lying on the pavement and cook to death?"

You realise that asphalt has a liquid state.

The birds have to use potholders to pull worms out of the ground.

The potatoes cook underground, so all you have to do is pull one out and add butter, salt, and pepper.

Farmers are feeding their chickens crushed ice to keep them from laying hard-boiled eggs.

The cows are giving evaporated milk.

The trees are whistling for the dogs.

Your best friends in summer just happen to have air conditioning or a pool

You remind yourself for the ninth year in a row to buy a new car that has airconditioning.

You sleep more often in your back yard than you do in your house.

You think living in England can't be that bad.

Now isn't that the truth?
