41F is cold? Shocked

yes - we consider 5 degrees Celsius to be cold in Australia.

We have poor quality houses with little insulation
and many people don't have gas heaters.

Why would you want one?

RC air conditioners do a much better job, for less.

I have a reverse cycle aircon and it's piss poor in winter compared to
the gas heater in my last place.

Maybe not powerful enough (?)

My RC AC is all I use, and it keeps me warm as toast.

It's on now, set to 24, and it's very comfortable.

Yes Lisa,
you need some global warming in Sydney right now:

http://www.bom.gov.au/nsw/forecasts/sydney.shtml?ref=hdr

Camden is -0.1 degrees right now.

Melbourne is cold too:

Look at Tassie:

poor Monk and his tropical dog.

Tasmania is looking at a TOP of 6 degrees.

So it’s going to be wonderful .... if you’re a penguin. Cry

Nah, where I was today got to a sunny 12°C.

Currently around 23 - 24°C here in Rockhampton. 9 to 14°C minimum temperatures for the next 6 days forecast. Maximums from 24 to 29°C for the same period. No winter up here at the moment. Will have to wait for the cold front to come over next week and drop temperatures.

Do you put a hot water bottle in her dog bed under a few layers of wool?

Unlike you, Socks is not a fairy.

There are two dogs, around a corner or two, not much more fur than Socks—sleep outside, on the veranda.

Lots of whippets at the lure coursing—they tropical dogas too? If so—why are so many Tassie dogs without the thick fur of a husky? Have not seen a husky yet.

Was on the beach today—Socks spent as much time in the water as out of it. You wouldn’t let your feet get wet

A Husky would be more at home in the freezing Tassie conditions:
