Singapore Slingshot

Which Is Hotter, Melbourne Or Singapore?

Well, believe me, the winner today is Melbourne. We've had a really hot spell of weather, but typically of Melbourne, we were using the heating on Tuesday, then the air conditioners for the next two days. For someone like me, who grew up in India, the north winds of my childhood used to hearld the onset of winter. But a Melbourne north wind is something else altogether. It is hot - H O T. And judging by the temperature in Singapore this afternoon (a mild 31 degrees Celsius when we stepped out of the airport) it's about six degrees cooler than it was in Melbourne yesterday. Hmmmm, six degrees of separation, literally.
