It does get cold here no doubt. Depends where you are. The more inland the nippier it gets & obviously the further south.
The houses arent really built for winter though so it seems colder.
Also, you seem to acclimatise quickly so 20 or below feels really nippy, sounds ridiculous but its true.
Only short though, lasts 2 months then its hot hot hot

Why oh why don't thay make houses over here for both winter and summer conditions. I really think they should use double glazing, as I think that would help alot
BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Totally agree...I'm sitting here right now (it's 10am) freezing my t*ts off. Have just opened front door and it is warmer outside!

Yes ... it is ridiculously cold in Perth ... I believe it dropped below 18 yesterday.

It's so cold here and the first time I've been truely cold since I was a kid. The house is way too big to heat and not worth heating anyway as the lack of insulation just means I end up warming the garden up.
Last night I made the mistake of retreating to the study and closing the door with a fan heater on. Nice and toasty warm until... I had to leave the room to go to bed. The rest of the house felt like it was sub zero!
What I would give for my 2 up 2 down semi with central heating and double glazing.

It's fantastic, and on track to be the coldest Brisbane day for 90 years (if you believe the media).
I love walking as fast as I like without being reduced to a mountain of sweat.
When I first came to Brisbane I imagined a very dull 'all year round' sort of weather pattern, I have been pleasantly surprised. Variety is the key for me.

We can't win, too hot in summer, freezing in winter! Bloody tiles everywhere don't help! Warmer outside, feel a trip to the local cafe coming on for a nice hot choc with marshmellows! Or maybe I can hang around the freezer section in Woolies - its gotta be warmer!
