It was about 3 celcius down in sussex as well chap. Not much fun when your doing fiddly bits.
Last time I visited family in Edinburgh it was one hell of a shock to the system though, at least I can close the garage and stick a heater on. I don't envy you at all......takes a haaaaaaaard man to work on cars in the cold all day long. |
