you are probably right tiger had the heating on 24/7 , just thinking back to when I was a nipper used ton go night fishing in weather as bad or worse than this back in the 1960s and 70s just a camp bed a thin sleeping bag and pub garden parasol with polythene sheeting pegged around it ,would often cast out in the night and hear a clanking instead of a splash where the water had frozen over . musta been crazy

Central heating has a lot to answer for Foyles. Was visiting friends in Langdon Beck last night, minus 15 at its coldest,a 25 minute walk to the pub, 30 minutes back of course!

whatever the weather and temperature in the uk tonight, spare a thought for the guys in Bastogne Dec 1944.In the central Ardennes, Bastogne became a focal point, surrounded by German divisions. The battle, fought under harsh conditions with temperatures feeling like minus 28 degrees Celsius, resulted in high casualties on both sides.

We used to get snow from November right through to February. Only get it in short phases now and then rain washes it away. Tonight -20c forecast is a rarity now. Definitely a lot milder here now than last century Sparrow.
