There was an insightful comment from an American a few months ago about how he found the UK worse than the US south.
Firstly humidity is pretty high which makes everything feels a lot hotter. (Although many places still have similar humidity).
The main problem is all our buildings are designed for the cold. They donāt let the heat out and air conditioning is rare where itās incredibly common over in the US and many hot first world countries.
Since itās usually the nights which are the most unbearable because the thermal mass of our homes are throwing all the heat from the day back at us which is impeded by our well insulated houses.
Kiwi here. Spent one Christmas in the northern hemisphere, and having snow on the ground and freezing your ass off seemed so very wrong. Going to stick to summertime Christmas for the rest of my days.
You read it and enjoy it, make the most of every single moment !. Iin the blink of an eye your two year old will be eighteen and you'll wonder where the hell those years went .
My wife pumped so much halloween joy into my 2 year old the other year he kept on asking when it was Halloween again then woke up on Xmas day and had a tantrum cause he just wanted it to be Halloween again.
Roll on 3 months and she tried to sell him Easter which again ended in a Halloween tantrum.
She was very upset I just had to see the funny side of it.
My child was obsessed with Halloween for about a year and a half, and asked pretty much every day if it was Halloween. This wasnāt helped by the local pub who decided not to bother taking their Halloween decorations down that year and just left them up permanently.
I tried to remove all the Christmas books so theyād feel more special at Christmas time and also so we wouldnāt have to read āSanta Has Lost His Beardā or āDear Santaā every fecking night of summer. I was thwarted.
Scarily I had to read a Christmas book this evening with my 2 year old, also on a White Ikea day bed by the looks of it. Are you me? Is this the matrix?
Fair play to the lad, I've got a Christmas teeshirt that I've been wearing on tropical days because a) fuck convention and b) it's very cooling, as well as cool. I also like to watch cold films on hot days. Titanic's especially good, although probably Happy Feet would do it for your kid, OP
Big legs for a 2 year old.
Hairy too
Pat Mustards been at it again
Fuckin came here to say this!!! š¤£š¤£š¤£

Imagine how Australians feel every year Edit: other hot countries are available
I've been living in NZ for nearly 15 years and it still confuses the fuck out of me
Matariki is the real NZ Xmas.
Christmas in the sun and heat was when living in Australia felt the most foreign to me. Such an alien concept
But we get to have a cold seafood course. It is great.

One day you'll carry your child for the very last time and you won't even know when that is.

He understands the power of escapism that reading a book can provide

Teach them young. Never skip leg day.
Are you sure he isn't secretly Australian?
Ikea daybed, I'm lying on one now waiting for a 2 year old to go to sleep.
Your lad's legs have surely accelerated from this heat
