      It's 10 degres today and it's really cold at night.
      There's quite a difference in areas as well.

      I am presently in Old Reynella. It's at least 3 or 4 degrees colder than in Port Noarlunga. Apparently something to do with the ocean keeping the coastal suburbs warmer in winter and cooler in summer?

      It's also important to have the right heating in your home. The reverse cycle systems are brilliant offering total zone control. The gas heating systems are also good. It's a good idea to check this one out before signing leases.

      Yup,try and ensure your Rental has all round heating and cooling if you are on your way here,it really is important.Lot's of rentals have little or no heating/cooling,so beware,it's easy to get carried away by nice surroundings,views etc,and forget the basics in comfort.:)

      Well I for one am loving this weather. :D

      I was delivering in pelting rain and some of the roads were like fast flowing rivers. The mail was more like papier mache by the time I got it in the boxes. I had great fun out there and got a light show for free.

      The only down side is that my under 10s football game has been called off for a water logged pitch and the fact that the rain has washed all the lines off.

      I keep getting calls from people saying their pools are overflowing.
      I saw one where the cover floated away down the garden

      You'll be right at home its just like Suffolk.

      You'll be alright in 6 weeks it'll be sunny and people will start complaining about having to water their gardens.
