From England straight to Louisiana is quite a leap

You're not kidding. Arriving from the UK into Sydney airport - the heat was unbelievable, but when I was in Melbourne, there was a question of 'wait? is this weather ... shit?'

Melbourne is a tropical London.

"A Tropical London" is a sexual maneuver that is, quite ironically, banned in Victoria.

The Australian state containing Melbourne, that is. You're allowed to attempt it with consenting women named Victoria elsewhere.

Can you describe this maneuver? The woman's name is irrelevant in this scenario

Can you describe this maneuver

Unfortunately, doing so is banned in Denmark.

Not necessarily. look at what Spain has in an area a bit smaller than Texas.
