Brrrrr!

Dear England,
I have found your cold!

Do you mind if we hold onto it for a little longer? as everyone is looking great in their scarves and the local homeless are well-rugged.

I don't remember the last Sydney 5 degree morning (I am in what is referred to as the coastal strip, despite being a few miles from any seawater.) The only downside is that it leads to being stuck in bed with cats pressed against the legs for warmth -- theirs rather than mine -- and god forbid one should wish to turn over!

Anyway, do enjoy the warmth, and be sure to send it home around August. Though if you would like to keep a bit in reserve for December and January, I am sure that no one here would mind!

Just saw your post: no hot water is RIDICULOUS! And against god and man! *Wishes for your hot to come back quickly, in water form at least!*

It's quite spectacularly unexciting, to tell you the truth. I got dressed under my doona this morning. I felt a bit ridiculous, but I also felt warm, so ...win!

Dad stayed at home today to wait for the repair man - apparently we got priority because we have neither heating nor hot water; if it'd had just been the heating, we'd have had to wait for over a week, because it seems that with the onset of the cold snap, lots of people have discovered problems with their heating... o.O

That's camping weather! And getting dressed under a doona is perfectly sensible in such conditions. I'm very pleased you were a priority: hope it's fixed by the time you get home!
