Meat Pie 47 Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 If you think it is hot in Thailand think again and come to Western Australia where the temperature reached 50.7 degrees 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virt Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 The only reason why i know it's so hot in Australia, is because i love the show Aussie gold hunters, and they stop their seasons when it gets to hot. The hottest i tried was 45 or so in Greece and that was just way to hot for me ???? I'm more comfortable with approx 30 celcius on Samui ???? But i don't think i will ever learn to sleep without air con in Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just know that if it get's below 26 or so in Thailand i start to freeze. Totally weird. When i first landed in Thailand it was 25 or so in Phuket, and i thought. IS THAT IT?

Meat Pie 47 Posted January 13, 2022 Author Share Posted January 13, 2022 In OZ we don't have high humidity unless you live up north (Darwin) which is simular to Singapore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mutt Daeng Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 (edited) It could be worse. I got an email from my brother (in North East UK) on Tuesday and he said the temperature ranges were between -3 and 8C. BRRRRRRRRRR.

When I travelled there many moons ago, the one day in The Kimberley was around 48 in the shade! Alright at night, but. Don’t mind high dry heat, humidity with moderate heat is worse. Having said that, I can take either as long as not hungover. ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also watching gold rush from Yukon, Gold divers from Nome Alaska and the series where they dregde in the wild rivers in the mountains. My favorites series along with deadliest catch and bloodline which follows their adventures on Hawaii. 4 of them shows has no problems with the heat. It's cold most of the time, so you might want to try out a gold career in Yukon ???? Personally i would go for the fishing season on Hawaii ????

Yukon Gold was great earlier on… Ken & Guillaume, and Big Al. Standup blokes. ???? Can’t beat pulling money out the ground, though easier going in Oz.

Oh never knew it was that hot, since they seem to constantly battle with permafrost. If that why they don't record in the summer? To much slur and everything would just turn into a mud pit? Any luck in your career hunting the gold? Must be a great way of making a living if successful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sipi Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Yeah the Aussie heat is a different heat to Thailand.

So those shows film in the summer and release later. Most try to strip a year ahead - remove the overburden. Then next spring when the sun hits the ground it will thaw, and you keep scraping the thaw and sluice it. Met Tony Beets 1976 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
