    Thanks for remembering us of the other hemisphere. Soon the sun will come and destroy us. 40 degree days suck.

      I judge whether a summer was ‘proper’ or not based on the condition of Adelaide’s rail network - if the tracks didn’t buckle under the heat (this is not a metaphor, it happens) at least once - it wasn’t really summer that year :P

      Yep. The worst part of winter isn’t all the clothing. It’s getting undressed every time you arrive at your destination.

      Yes! Honestly, I love the cold. If it weren’t for the fact that my favorite pass times are swimming and gardening, I’d so happily move somewhere that’s cold all year round. I love bundling up, I love the extra pockets that jackets give me. I love scarfs and the crochet beanies my mom made me when she was still here, and it doesn’t hurt that it’s the only time I think I look decent when I dress like that.

      But my GOD the heat stroke when you walk in a store in January. It’s awful

    It’s been hitting -20c where I’m at currently. I love it, I’m so happy I moved here, idk what it is about the cold but it makes me happy and bundling up to go outside is fun
