I have no idea what you were trying to say by the last sentence, the "pea bruise" part, but 30 degrees sounds nice.

I know you don't want to hear any more princess stuff, but I'm just going to explain that last Sentence...

She was talking about the Princess and the Pea, where the Princess slept on a bunch of Mattresses and still felt the pea under the bottom one.

Basically meaning if it's really cold over there would that be good enough for you?
