Title: Coldest Day So Far
Post by: Dave JP on December 21, 2007, 11:17:56 am

Outside at 8.00am this morning to make a start - Temperature guage on the van showed -10.  Inside of the windscreen was frozen - No hope for any w/c today.
 :(  Will have to stop in and watch Jeremy Kyle  ;)

Even my neighbours BMW failed to start.  ;D

Actually a lot warmer today here in Surrey.

No frost.

Pity it's my last day until the new year.  ;D

It always reads worse before you start because frost has got in the thermometer.

Mine said -5 yesterday morning, but after a couple of miles it was saying -2.
You only get an accurate reading when you're going along.

Another full day, trad, WFP is obviously for softies, fair-weather window-cleaners, light-weights, casual labour, beer-money boys, those living off the state.

Pull ur fingers out, you dont know ur born nowadays  ;D
