Pardon the pun are we polar opposite

Australia's +40 comes at harvest time after crop has matured. We got it during the prime portion of the growing season. Worst of both worlds. Western canuckistan is the anus of creation.

I beg to differ. See Mallee's comment above regarding snakes. I'll take 40 below over snake and spiders and intolerable heat any day.
Although harvesting when the days are getting longer, and under no threat of imminent snow would be appealing. But stilll would cancel out the spiders and snakes.

Had a guy who used to work casually for us on and off. Friggin loonigan used to grab snakes by the tail and crack them like a whip. Meant to snap there neck.

To show I don’t bullshit I never saw him once succeed in about 6 attempts. But it was a bit of light humour.

Reckon austcanada is in grips of moderate heat wave not exactly sure we’re he is. We’ve got today 38 tomorrow 41 next day 37 then back to mid 20s for a week.

Definition of heatwave often point of conjecture myself I say 4 days over 40 but plenty parts of oz get it for weeks. Longest spell here I reckon 10 days between 39 and 46. Dad used to say common when he was a kid. We are all soft cocks.

Ya know it’s hot when first 90 seconds of my weekly shower the waters hot

Thinking maybe worn shorts on a holiday with a lady friend so.... twice since birth 🤣
But I do go down to Saxx under light coveralls when over 25. Cant take heat like when I was under 30.
No fun when old hands hurt like hell in this weather.

Sounds familiar. When I get drug kicking and screaming to a beach, I'm the guy sitting in the shade, staying dry, wearing jeans, long sleeve shirt and proper footwear.

If I could keep my poor fingers from freezing I could tolerate any cold temperatures. I think they have been frost bitten and injured too many times, and most likely Raynaud's syndrome. I had to give up and quit what I was doing the other day because my fingers were so frozen while wearing my warmest mitts. Got to the truck and discovered it was only -3 C. There is definitely a mind over matter component that I can't seem to master.

Just been through a few harvest ban days. Should get a few cooler days soon but end of next week looks hellish. This external plumbing is common even on new builds. If its installed on the west side of the building you can actually scald yourself at the start when you turn only the cold tap on, on really hot(42 deg) days.
Otherwise been to the beach and also toured port of Albany
