It's turned all cold! Now I know that 10 degrees celsius doesn't sound cold to you people who live in cold places but Sydney is not fitted out for temperatures under about 20 degrees. Our houses are poorly insulated, we don't tend to have large stocks of cold weather clothes (not much point buying stuff for the two cold weeks we get per year) and we're just not used to it! It's no colder than any previous winters but I reserve the right to comment that I am cold.
I do like winter though because of hot chocolate, wearing lots of layers of clothes, hot baths, sitting in front of heaters (used to have a fireplace til we finished burning the back fence and trees that came down in the storm of 1991 and hence had no wood sources anymore) and walking long distances without getting sweaty!
