I'm b&^*%$ COLD!
 
Don't know about the rest of you but here in Brisbane it's bloody cold tonight! No reverse cycle in this rental either which doesn't help. Last year I put up a thread about central heating in Queensland and was slated! Now I wish I had my central heating:(

Cheers

Well it was minus 5 this morning when I drove to work - but I STILL haven't got a coat on and am in single layer - trousers and jumper nothing else - bit fresh!!!! Not the same biting winds you get back in the UK - so minus 5 actually feels like 4 degrees!

I've reacclimatised to the cold. Was a bit of a shock to the system initially, but I'm back in shorts now - though admitedly with a fleece top on. In the house we have little oil/electric heaters in the living room, office and bedrooms which work on timers - they come on at 7:30am to heat the room before getting up and afternoon/evening for the other areas. Might need a warm shower when I get home from my inshore boat training tonight though. :D

Dunno what you are on about.

I was walking over to South Bank at 11 last night in a Hawaiian shirt with a stuffed duck hanging out of the pocket for warmth. It was lovely.

I would like to thank Bundy Bear for this act of lunacy.
