Re: Wouldn't it be nice...

People become acclimatised to temperature so what feels cold to one person won't feel cold to another. I watch Big Brother Australia and see the housemates outside complaining how cold it is and all huddled up in their jumpers and coats - it's all a matter of what you are used to. I don't like temperatures over 100 degrees - it just makes me feel ill and lethargic which is why I left Spain between the end of June until mid-September.

Blimey BV, 100 degrees? That would finish me off.
I start getting anxious if it rises much above early - mid 70's.
I don't like either extreme though, don't cope very well in excessive heat or very cold either.

Re: Wouldn't it be nice...

I can cope with high temperatures provided it is dry heat. It's the humidity that saps me. Same with the cold - dry cold is fine, but damp cold chills me through. But the thing that wears me down most is gale force winds, which is what made me start this thread!
