I don't miss the wind that whichever way it comes, comes in over snow and freezes your bits off... Much rather Perth winters - when you know its cold because you have to put a jumper on.
I hear you there Brendan...it's probably fair to say that the best thing about a Canberra winter is that it gives you something to look forward to (spring)
I'm yet to experience Perth, but having a few friends who have gone that way, plus finding that Guitar building is popular in the West, my interested is piqued.
