What's happening in your world?

That's still shorter than my winter days. I'm about as far south as one can go in Canada, and our shortest winter day is about 7 1/2 hours long.
Farseer: Schools of the Air are real? I always thought that was a myth they told us to make us feel better about going to a rural high school!

Whoa I was actually surprised to find out our shortest day is 9 hours! (I had to look it up!). We are sort of in the mountains where I live so unfortunately actual winter sunlight (as opposed to daylight) hours are shorter for us....

Heehee it never occurred to me other countries might think of school of the air as a myth. I guess there are probably a million things I think are myths that are true and even more things vice versa!
I suppose you also think drop bears are a myth!

Farseer didn't you say the aircon was on all day (and night?) just a while ago? And now you're freezing at 30C? (Hey you haven't still got the aircon going have you, that would do it )
But seriously, I hate to think how hot it was for you to have to have the aircon on if you're cold at 30 !

I'm directing all people who complain how cold Tasmania is to Lord Punctual's post above! I particularly like '-25 is cold but it isn't that cold'
Tee hee!!! It's all relative isn't it. It's amazing how you CAN acclimatise. I had to handle temps above 30 (often far above) pretty well every day for a couple months in Perth, and just took it for granted, but now I feel hot when it gets over 25 !!!! Granted, aircons were on pretty well everywhere you went in Perth, but here I only used our aircon a few times for a few hours at a time here in summer.
