As I write, my car is waming up. It’s -22 C out there this morning. Makes one want to curl back up under the covers and ignore those kids waiting at the hospital. Well, I won’t have to worry about my lunch spoiling in the car while it sits there this morning. And as I heard this am on CBC – there are no mosquitos!
Cold!!!

Now that is COLD.
We had a really harsh winter here about 8 years ago where it got down to minus 12C at night, minus 5C in the day. A lot of people still remember that! But then this is the home counties in the UK, and it just isn’t meant to get that cold. We had a hard time that winter because we were still on solid fuel (basically wood that had to be cut, stacked and carried in – coal is less efficient). Wet wood is kind of interesting as a fuel too, particluarly when it has ice all over it
All character building stuff though 😉
