Christian Posted February 19, 2008 Author Share Posted February 19, 2008 I had -17 and a burst radiator just before Christmas My heating has been temperamental for the last 3 weeks too Hopefully they actually fixed it yesterday it was still working this morning so fingers crossed Poor you! -17, now that is cold! I bit the bullet and bought fingerless gloves today (as recommended by Egluntine) and they are really good Its 2 degrees C now and dropping, forecast is -5 again tonight and I have to be at work early tomorrow. Looks like i'll be s"Ooops, word censored!"ing again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Lovely mental image here of Carl trailing loads of paraphernalia on strings, like a newlyweds car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Well, it will make a change from leaving all manner of things all over the place We have conversations like...... me "have you seen the wheelbarrow?" Carl "Um..... I used it to take some hay to the cows...." ............."but I might have put it in the freezer room" Me "have you got the keys to the freezer room?" Carl " erm............"

Lesley Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Back on topic.......... The weather here is much milder today - fog but no frost......better go and check for burst pipes...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Bright here but still absolutely freezing....indoors and out! I keep making myself cups of tea and they go cold before I've had change to drink more than half. It's minus 2 in what we laughingly refer to as the sun porch. Hens water refrozen after an hour. Everywhere looks so pretty though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Not that cold here today, 0.7 deg when I got up, but it's very misty here in the Cherwell Valley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted February 20, 2008 Author Share Posted February 20, 2008 It was -4 when i left for work this morning and pea soup all the way to the airport. Flight delays aplenty! I hope you are off today Chelsea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Rosie and I marvelled at that too Sarah - I'd like to see it for myself too. Mine are sunbathing in a sheltered bit too. I hear that we're in for a spot of milder weather later this week; rain is on the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted February 25, 2008 Author Share Posted February 25, 2008 Typical! After a lovely warmish day yesterday I planted out my lupins, foxgloves and a few other plants. -2 this morning! Frost and thick fog! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
