If you don't drink alcohol, don't like sport or hate the cold, give poor old Melbourne a miss unless you are rich. In which case you can buy a trip up north at any time after April when the temp goes under 10 deg. For the rest of us it's Stay inside, potter around the dried up garden (with a coat on) and wait to die. I lived there and if you are young, wealthy, an alcoholic, or a Footy head.. Life is good. If not it can be a cold lonely place.
