Not if you suffer from allergy
I from cold winter weather get things like hemmorhoids etc, and from the smoke in bars and restaurants (in summer I am rather outside if the weather is dry) get eye conditions. And cold winter wheather also can cause rheumatism. And approaching spring with the nice flavours of blooming nature is always a real joy

Nein Nein Nein Nein! I hate the heat specially behind my monitors and on my top floor shoe box flat. I guess it's getting barbecued time again
Reduce the number of monitors, and trace for another apartment

sure, reminds me of a medicament my mother once got, to the amusement of my brother and me in the "writings" having had the warning "can cause overswelling eyes and buzzing ears". Mum the same day went back to the doctor who changed the stuff

No, I rather expect a free beer for the idea

And if you replace the four monitors by a big screen and use the windows system in a real way, you will make important savings

Cold weather in reality can come back, even including snow, up to mid June, but not as a rule

Re: Yes-yes-yes!

Begga. You're from Iceland aren't you? I would have thought that anywhere there is sun during the winter would be an improvement - outlook-wise. No?

Wait 'til you get to the "rainy" season. I don't know if it's the same throughout CH, but in Basel, we get heat in the morning and over lunch, thunderstorms in the afternoon, sauna in the evening. Hmmmm... sweaty...

Hmm, St. Paddy's tonight, day off tomorrow. So once my hangover has cleared, could be a great day for a VTT trip through a few forests.
