November, No sun, no warmth, no...
It is official: November - for the majority of the world - is a bad month for weather.
When in Uganda on the equator, it was a month of cool highlands-style drizzle.
Here in Taiwan I've been looking forward to cooler temperatures since the day I arrived.
Everyday I've cycled to work and had to stand in front of the air con unit for 10 minutes before i could think about teaching... but this week on exactly Nov 1st, the temperature didn't become pleasant: it plummeted!
Apparently the low temp was 20': I disagree! On Wednesday night I woke up shivering and had to wear half my wardrobe to sleep. Yesterday I cycled into work in a woolly jumper, and was still chilly.
Then to top a unpleasantly cool day off: I forgot my keys had to cycle back to work and it started raining - not heavy: just cold highland drizzle - the stuff that soaks ya right through.
After all these months thinking 'I'll be able to go jogging when it cools down a bit' - well now it's cool and I just wanna stay tucked up with a mug of cocoa.
