You know you're in a Perth summer when:
1. The best parking space is determined by shade instead of distance.2. Hot water comes out of both taps.3. You learn that a seat belt buckle makes a pretty good branding iron.4. The temperature drops below 35c and you feel a little chilly.5. You discover that in February it only takes two fingers to steer your car.6. You discover that you can get sunburned through your car window.7. You develop a fear of metal car door handles.
8. You break a sweat the instant you step outside at 7:30am.9. Your biggest bicycle wreck fear is, "What if I get knocked out and end up lying on the pavement and cook to death?"10. You realize that asphalt has a liquid state.11. Farmers are feeding their chickens crushed ice to prevent them from laying hard-boiled eggs.12. The cows are giving evaporated milk.13. The trees are whistling for the dogs.14. While walking back barefoot to your car from the beach, you do a tightrope act on the white lines in the car park.15. You catch a cold from having the aircon full blast while you sleep during the night.16. You pray that your train will have air-conditioning, and if it doesn't. Waiting an extra 15 minutes for one is worth it.
