Never thought I'd live to see the day 27Β° feels cool

I've managed to reduce the inside temp down to 27.3. Limited because I don't want to open up my blinds, so it's just the window behind them

I remember after the heatwave before Black Saturday there was a day in the high 30s and I was really happy to have finally have some cool weather.

It was brutal. I remember it very well because there was a whole week in the 40s and the airconditioning in our place at the time was not great. Also my workplace was a long commute away, very not fun in the afternoons. And this was the days before working from home was an option. A lot of people were β€˜sick’ that week on various days.
