Sun Dial

[jcuknz]

Before air conditioning was common I spent a few nights at the Melborne YCMA hostel and outside the temperature was 100 Fahrenheit at 8pm... 38C .... my room mate was a piano tuner working in the rubber tyre factory, poor guy. I was on holiday.

Hi John,

I live in Adelaide, which is often even hotter than Melbourne........

I often think how people must have been feeling before air cond. was common, but the houses were build different then, smaller windows, verandas all around the house, and sometimes a house had also a cellar .....and also less spoilt as we are
