Hardly surprising when we tell 'foreigners' that windmills are giant fans for cooling down the cattle and drinking troughs for stock are, in fact, outdoor bathtubs

I have also seen the term shirt sleeves used here before (ah, yep, it was Manephelien who earlier said that it was "shirtsleeve weather" earlier in this thread). I am assuming that, by this, you both mean you wear a t-shirt with short sleeves? In Australia we would just say we were wearing a short-sleeved shirt or a long-sleeved shirt.
