theres snow every where and its so cold :( :( :( :'( :'(
-
If they are they won't be able to say coz they are out working ;D
As for me I'm not. Everything that could be frozen is :(
-
im not, got 750 litres of water in tank and its all frozen, the hoses are frozen, me pole snapped yesterday, and one of the chambers on my filtering system snapped out of the mounts.
WFP is not for the cold.......................

I'm giving today a miss; we don't want to get buggered about two-days-in-a-row with stuff freezing all over the place.
-
We've given it a miss as well, this week is a dead loss I reckon.
Did some shopfronts this morning, and nearly slipped over 3 times as the snow has covered the ice....time to do all the things I never get time for... :)
-
Van is frozen, so i bought a oil filled rad to defrost it.
Apart from that, there are plenty of WC's out working ive seen loads. I want to get the wfp working rather than using ladders, so as i cant move the van i cant go trad.
Anyway, ive done some quotes this morn, which ive got all of them and start next week, and im delivering flyers later, just came back to check on the van.
Will be making a concious note to be prepared for wfp in the winter next year, however this winter is worse for me than last time, i didn't freeze at all last year. Need to be prepared for this next year.
I dont mind working in the cold i have plenty of thermal layers to wear, so long as my equipment works ok..
-
Weathermen say its the worst winter since 1996. I remember the days when wc used to be a seasonal job only.
-
Going back to trad for the next couple of days.
Rained off enough last year, can't justify taking time off when it is dry. If you wait for temps to improve you may find yourself rained off anyway.

-

Am I missing something here. Max temp in Wilts today was allegidly 1c. Too cold for me. You weren't a Polar Bear in a former life were you?http://www.bbc.co.uk/wiltshire/weather/forecast/index.shtml#no_url
