Probably a bit exaggerated, but all in all it is so. My favourite season is winter. I cannot stand the sturdy hot summer anymore and an AC (I will get one next month) in the bedroom will not be the answer to everything.

So either moving or suicide. No kidding.
My close friend who lives in Fluorn-Winzeln (near Rottweil) has also complained about the warm winter there. No such problem here this winter. We've had about 2 meters of snow this winter and lots of crazy cold weather.
