Winter and Summer confusion

Dear Hillary,

We are looking at coming over for a two week holiday in November and wonder if it might be a little too hot at that time of year.  We have been over before in June and it was hot then, and that was winter.  We’ve looked through all the tourist brochures and stuff, but you can’t rely on them giving anybody anything other than it’s wonderful, come on over.  That’s why I thought of you, as you at least know what’s going down and give people straight answers.

Dear Mandy from Melbourne,

You’re from Down-Under, aren’t you, my Petal.  Hanging upside down all your life has not helped you I fear.  Thailand is in the northern hemisphere, Sweet Pea, and June is mid-summer, not winter, as it is in Melbourne.  November is one of our coolest months, the end of the rainy season and a very pleasant time for anybody from the Antipodes.  Temperatures are generally in the mid 20’s.  Come on up, and a bottle of Australian Methode Champenoise would be nice!
