If this carries on I'm Not........

[Dalboy]

........Going out to the shed it is bloody snowing here and quite a bit as well. But then I could always get my wife to clear a path to the trusty shed then I may brave it.

 

[Walter]

My shed, fortunately, is a garage attached to the house so no need for arctic gear to get there, but it is still freezing cold in there and having spent most of the day trying to restore some semblance of order to it I am now thawing out indoors.

Shed was out of the question today here, rain all afternoon turned to snow so bugger it!

 

[GSteer]

Just heading out now, snow flurried then vanished up here in the north Darn it, I just want a good lay.

 

[Penpal]

37 degrees here today Friday morning, careful what you wish for.

Peter.

 

[Dalboy]

Darn it, I just want a good lay.

I hope you are talking about the snow

Since I have refurbished my shed it's nice an toastie in there. Had it up to nearly 20degrees in there today..

Had to turn the heating off at one point.

Never turned anything tho, spent hours trying to replace the screen on my I pad.

All done now and waiting for adhesive to set.

Oh, by the way no snow here just a bit of sleet and rain.

Snowing heavy in Wrexham now

I hope you are talking about the snow

I'd better be otherwise the missus would have my head!

I can work in the shed this time of year but I do need to put the heating on well in advance. By the time it's warm enough though I've lost interest in what I was going to do.

 

[GSteer]

Well it was a temperate 7.3 degs when I went in there thanks to my wife turning my oil rad on at around 4pm. The fan heater got it up to 13 before I'd finished. Not toasty but usable in fleece/hat.

You're all soft. Been laying all day. Business as usual.

What do you mean soft we have a whole 1" of snow, now Kent has come to a standstill.

Where my daughter lives in Utah USA they bought another house across the road from the school she teaches at. The other day a snow plough left heavy drifts amongst the heavy snow falling. As she crossed the road in snow up to her armpits she lost a shoe, staggered on to school, turned out no one else came, school was cancelled and she had a lovely pupil free morning. Unless you enjoy Snow pursuits it must be very trying living in these conditions. THey bought a unit from a friend just outside Las Vegus they are looking forward to retirement in four years time there. Winter in their rift valley lasts for 6 months. 37 C today here.

Kind of you to send it North Derek, got a couple of inches here overnight though it's melting now the temp has gone up to 3 deg. Have to get changed into the T shirt and shorts soon.

Soft Southerners. :wink:

I work in the Garage attached to the house and I can get in to it without going out side, still its very cold in there the term brass monkey come to mind :blue:

 

[webby962]

As I was shivering in my garage setting up my new drill, and turning a pen I was reminded of an old saying that used to get thrown around when I used to go mountaineering: "There is no such thing as bad weather, just a wrong choice of clothes!". One wooly hat and extra fleece later, I was slightly warmer.

A couple of years ago we moved from our old abode which was 1000 feet ASL to the house we now have which is about 500 feet ASL and it has made a lot of difference snow wise we only have about 4 inches today. I have seen the snow up to the roof at times in the old house with the drift and quite a few times unable to get out of the glen and seen temptetures as low as -28C but it did not bother us as Adie says we just put on more clothes and I prefer the cold to the heat for this reason. When we visit relatives in London in the summer what goes for us is the heat and the humidity and in the interest of public morality you can only strip down so far.

Bob why not just clear a couple of holes to look out of, make it harder for the speed cameras to identify you.
