Mum said it was minus 3 in Sydney last night – the coldest it’s been there for more than 20 years. The house is made for the long hot summers – ventilation ducts in every wall, one lone gas heater on which to warm your bum, one electric blanket and lots and lots of hand-spun woolly jumpers. Here in Vienna its 38 degrees plus, the hottest it’s been here in more than twenty years. Funny thing is, we’ve been there before.
