Quote from: "Mr Crowley"15c where you are is coat and hat weather!!!


I don't wear hats. If it's that cold, I don't leave the house.  I rug up with leather coats and scarves and thigh high boots.

At 15C?!?  I'd be out in a t-shirt and shorts.
Beware of Gaslighters!

If I recall the conversion from Celcius to Fahrenheit is:  C° x 1.8 + 32



So 15°C = 59°F???? That's cold  :confused1:



That's early springtime temps around here. The frickin flowers are out.

Quote from: "Mona"I find it easier to cool down than warm up.  It doesn't matter how many layers of clothes I wear in the cold, I'm never warm enough.  But in heat, it's a simple matter of wearing hardly any clothing.  (So less washing, too, which is always a bonus.)

Does it get cold where you live Mona?


No. Anything under 20C and I need a jumper.

Fifteen is a nice temperature..



Which city do you live in Mona?


I don't like to pinpoint my exact location.  I'm on the East Coast, north of Sydney and south of Brisbane.  And I have lived in multiple locations from Sydney to the Sunshine Coast.

There all nice warm sunny places Mona.

It got hot when I was working in the Toowoomba area of Queensland. I can adjust better than most because I have worked everywhere from Arctic tundra to equatorial jungles.

Yes, I don't function well in colder regions.

Toowoomba can get extremes in weather. In Summer it's stinking hot,  because there's no ocean breezes, and the rain doesn't always make it over the ranges.  But in the midst of winter you can get very low temperatures and a little further out it snows.

I never noticed it being extreme cold. I thought the winter weather was close to perfect for working.

We came close to immigrating to Aus. Based on Daddy's occupation at the time, my parents thought his prospects would be better in Canada.

The Chinese also favour it. Apparently the tail of the dragon is a fortuitous positioning. Whole suburbs have been taken over, and the Asian drug trade in those areas is booming. Everyone else stays out of their way, or moves well out of the area.
