According to the BOM it is 12 degrees. Let's all assume that Melbourne and especially Canberra are off your list of relocation possibilities. :)

It felt a lot colder than 12 degrees. You know these tall buildings in the Brisbane CBD cause lots of wind tunnels.

I was really cold walking up from Central at ~8:00pm.

And no I am not thinking about moving to Canberra anytime this century unless it was a good job offer or she is worth it! ;)
 
One thing is that houses in QLD were not built with the intent of putting up with a glacial winter. (Very useful in blaring hot summer to make sure you're not in a pillbox-come-oven). Especially when you have an early start to the day and your bathroom lacks heat lamps.

But, we put up with anything in QLD :)

Many people who look at the air temperature and go "so what" forget the power of wind (chill).
 
I joined eHarmony ~3 weeks ago out of curiosity. Boy did it take a long time to join.

Truly weird and everything they do they try to get you to purchase membership. Waste of time. Wish I had know before I joined.

Here is your specialised match. No details. No photos. Cough up money to see them.

Someone viewed your profile. "View her profile". Up pops the payment screen.

"So and so wants to skip the guided channels of communication to chat". Cough up money to chat to them.

Actually true that. Not that I use their services, but for some gentlemen they are a perfect compromise between "companionship" and cost of companionship.

Eharmony is a joke. But most dating sites (just like relationship bureau's) are mainly there to extract money. And many profiles are fake, or otherwise very untruthful.

Are you saying you have a problem with me saying I'm a 6' blonde with big hoohas?
 
You would think how long John Newcombe has been commentating he could pronounce Bernhard Tomic's surname properly? Newk it's pronounced Tom-ich not Tom-ick!

IMO, pronunciation of foreign surnames is not high on the 'to learn' list of many Aussies...unless they work for SBS. Newcombe butchered Wawrinka's name all throughout the match last night. It's not hard - he's just lazy.

Well, that explains why they are constantly advertising on TV. All those fees are paying for the ads.
