The past week or more the weather has been maximums under 15C with showers throughout the day. Some days we see the sun, some days we don't see it at all. Peter has been informed by the locals at work that this is typical winter weather.
I don't mind the days where the sun comes out a little bit as it helps warm up the house, and so inside it isn't too cold, just outside is a bit cool. The days the sun doesn't come out are really cold, because the house doesn't warm up at all, so inside is pretty cold, not just outside.
We are back

Welcome to living in a land that has a proper winter. Does your house have heating? My suggestion is if it does, have it running all the time. It might cost a bit, but it does keep the house a bit more comfortable, especially in the mornings.
No heating! NZ has a very bad reputation when it comes to having houses built for the conditions. There are a significant number of homes that aren't even insulated. The government has recognised that it is such a problem with regards to health that there is a program running at the moment to try and get all houses to have a minimum standard of insulation. Our house is insulated, and it certainly makes a difference.
