I've read a lot of posts on here about the winters in ChCh and how awful they are, my husband (from ChCh) assures me this is not true, although he does reckon i'm going to have to harden up a bit with regards to the central heating lol.
Admittedly he hasn't lived in NZ for 12 years now and we're coming from Switzerland where the winters are awful, bitterly cold and seem to go on forever, this last winter was especially harsh and long and it's June now and we've only just started getting some good weather!
He reckons even in the winter in NZ despite it being cold you get nice sunny days, as opposed to the constant grey here.
Just wondered about others experiences of ChCh weather?? Oh and when does it start to get warmer, we're moving over at the end of August in the hope of making the most of the summer here and avoiding most of the winter there?
Thanks all.
