I gave no defence of Melbourne’s weather nor was offended? I said it was subjective and gave my own opinion - am I not allowed to like different weather to you? I’m not trying to convince you that your experience is incorrect or wrong either. Your insane use of exclamation marks and inserting this topic into a convo about crazy Emmy is pretty unusual. Seems like you’re far more invested in it than anyone that’s responded, myself included. What does weather have to do with the current water quality in the bay? Your assertion of that being the reason why you brought it up doesn’t quite fit either but that’s ok. You don’t have to like Melbourne’s weather. And when it’s hot people go to the available water they’ve got. In Melbourne that’s the bay. It’s not great, but it’s there, so people use it. Including heffalumps like Lu!
And if we’re going down the bitchy path, someone should do a study on people whose enjoyment of places is based solely on natural features that no humans have any input into and how that negates an enjoyment of cultural and community activities and spaces the likes of which thrive in the grim winters of London, Paris, New York, Tokyo, Beijing, Berlin etc etc etc.
Don’t ya know!!
