crasala Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 My 5th winter here and some of the things that remind me that winter is here are 1) I walk into 7-11 and it feels warm. 2) I close the air vents on my motorcycle helmet. Feel free to add to the list ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post mamborobert Posted December 11, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted December 11, 2012 (edited) I would normally wake up around 6.30am to whisper awake my children to spend ever precious time with them before they go off to school, because they grow up so fast you know, soon they will be adults and gone, prepare a full breakfast (its the most important meal of the day) .....and wave them off at the door.......What will I do when they leave me forever...what will I do?. Now I know......For the last few days I have yelled at them to get up through two walls and a warm doona, laugh at them from the warm doona as they prepare for school shivering and complaining, and once I hear the front door close, role gently to the left and drift back to my warm cocooned sleep.

rene123 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 You know it's winter when the Thais come to pick up their big blankets that they've left at the local laundry shop for the past 7 months. They never store them at home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fookhaht Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 When you turn your hot water heater on high and it's still uncomfortably cool in the shower. I know, I'm such a weather-wimp.
