By Heck Today seems A Cold One.
We've escaped the worst of it looking around the Country but my marrow has never seemed so cold on such a sunny, wind chill free day, is it time to drag out the thermals? Or should we do what every sensible dormouse does?

Re: By Heck Today seems A Cold One.
I can recommend hibernation.
It also prevents contact with germ infested people.
Unfortunately I didn't properly 'emerge' during the brief summer due to the plague of flies and silver birch pollen.
I get my Vit D from a bottle

Re: By Heck Today seems A Cold One.
Winters seem to be getting cooler over there. Might be time to consider changing your national sport from football to Hockey ... let's face it; you guys suck big time at football. Anyway, soccer is a game for wimps and women ... I mean, look at the way supposedly grown men roll around in agony nursing a broken finger nail Then they turn to the ref crying "That nasty man bumped into me and tried to take my ball." In Canada, the girls play football; and they do it well enough to beat England at the Olympics Real men play Hockey Buy skates for the kids this Christmas ... and a good dental plan; many a gobfull of teeth has been ruined by a puck travelling at warp speed "All shod with steel,/We hissed along the polished ice" ... there, even Wordsworth could skate

Re: By Heck Today seems A Cold One.
I once reported a restaurant that served suspicious looking 'chicken' - was probably cat - amazing what curry spices can do, but the texture wasn't chicken.

Cold? This is cold- coming from Huatulco Mexico and 35 deg to Whitehorse in the Yukon, two feet of snow and -20 deg.
