Looking forward to maybe having a white Christmas, we don't get them here in West Australia, last year it was 45C (113F) on Christmas and Boxing Day. So obviously getting used to the cold will be another challenge.

That's okay, planning on taking up all the sports I do here over there, basketball, long distance running and indoor beach volleyball.
That sounds lovely. I'm a bit further north in Aberdeen. Rarely do you actually get a white christmas here! Usually snows in January! Although for me, a hot christmas would be nice! I quite fancy the idea of having xmas dinner on the barbeque down the beach! Lol! I don't think you ever really get used to the cold. I've been here a long time and I still hate it! But everyone's different!

I think that's why a lot of scots are big drinkers - helps numb your body to the cold. Lol! Thats probably why a lot of girls can go out in the snow wearing, well, not very much at all!
