hahahaha.....no it isnt cold here but the water in the spa is LOLOL....it is under shade all day so dont get a chance to heat thru....hence the solar mats, which we will only use occaisionally.

Where are you? in the sth island? I used to live in CH.CH...that was either too hot with the westerly winds or too darn cold due to the snow on the hills :)
I was born in Takapuna on the Nth Shore of auckland.
