I guess we are spoilt for sunshine. I swear, where I live we have around 95% sunshine throughout the year. It's easy to take it for granted and complain when it is shit weather. @ Friar: It is a bit like that for sure. I guess we are spoilt for sunshine.

I swear the weather is fabulous here. But, we don't have central heating in our house (and most don't have anyway). Houses here are built for the warm weather, except the new ones who have better insulation and all. It does get down to 0'C down south though. Here in Qld. it gets as low as 2'C in certain areas. Thank god winter is only a short 3 months usually anyway. The other 9 months is awesome. But, with changing weather patterns and all who knows what will happen in the future. I think it will only get hotter in summer and colder in winter. Plus, we (or most Aussies) are not equipped with snuggly winter coats a la Jack Wolfskin, etc here. Or even your outdoorsy waterproof gear, so it is only normal that we freeze even more. @ Wendi: Noooooo, you weren’t wrong. I swear the weather is fabulous here.

But further north, it's quite toasty warm. When I visited Oz, my girlfriend at the time considered it "good beach weather" when it was sunny and 90 degrees. But if it was slightly overcast and (gasp), "only" in the 80's, it was considerd "Shit weather" and people stayed home! @Wendi

Australia is on our possible tranfer list and I put it close to the top( of my personal preference)- ahead of France and Canada because it had beaches and warm weather. Was I wrong?
