You know you're in an Australian summer when...
* the best parking space is determined by shade instead of distance
* hot water comes out of both taps
* you learn that a seat belt buckle makes a good branding iron
* the temperature drops below 35c and you feel cold
* you discover that in February it only takes two fingers to steer your car
* you discover that you can get sunburnt through your car window
* you develop a fear of metal car door handles
* you break a sweat the instant you step outside at 7:30am
* your biggest bicycle wreck fear is, "What if I get knocked out and
end up lying on the pavement and cook to death?"
* you realise that asphalt has a liquid state
* farmers are feeding their chickens crushed ice to prevent them from
laying hard-boiled eggs
* the cows are giving evaporated milk
* the trees are whistling for the dogs
Makes me feel a bit better about the current cold<g>
