We're down in the Gold Coast for a few days with the kids, have been to Movie World, Sea World but it's so cold I bought tickets to Wet n Wild while still in Cairns but it's soo chilly not sure I fancy getting wet, is it usually like this in April or is this out of the ordinary??

I thought it was a bit chilly tonight too...

Shut the windows for a little while...

It is a bit chilly. I've been wearing socks for the past few days. The water at Wet n' Wild is slightly heated though so you should be ok. Welcome to the Goldie.

cant wait until I can complain like that!

"it's a bit chilly, so I had to put some socks on and shut the windows!"

It's still trying to bloody snow here, and it's freezing!

LOL it's freezing mate. My feet are cold for the first time in 7 months and I have had to shut all the doors and windows. Brrr!!

Now the air con ads make complete sense...you know the ones where the guy says, "save energy , turn your air con down to 24 degrees" I just didn't get it as ours was set at 16 when it was hot. Doh!!

shiels

Me too, been in double layers for the last few days!!! Didn't take long to acclimatise eh!!!!!!! C x

16 degrees

mooncat

Yes 16!!

I only had it on twice and for a total of about four hours. God it was great aswell. the windows steamed up on the outside which we found hilariously funny and walking upstairs you hit a solid wall of heat which was just gross. Of course now that I've been here for 7 months I wouldn't dream of doing something so appalling ever, ever again!

p.s.I don't sweat anymore either, I restrain myself and perspire gently like the locals.lol

moneypenny20

But you must have been frozen I don't like 16 degrees in winter, let alone summer

shiels

I reckon anything below 20*C is cold!!! How are we going to manage in June Pen??? C x

moneypenny20

Well we've got the wood burner so we're ok. What are you going to do

shiels

Pop down the road to a friends and sit around her wood burner!!!!

Or we could just go to the Uk instead??? C x

moneypenny20

The first would be better but I guess the second will be ok
