[plug] RQotD: Linux Great Southern Group?

I meant like winter in Albany, it's 6C at the moment, we had a little  
bit of snow this morning but it melted in less than an hour.

However our house here is not made for the cold so I really feel it.

On our holidays to Albany we used to stay at a place across the road  
from Middleton Beach which was an old place about the same age as this  
one I'm staying in here. It has the same smell to it too!
