Sounds beautiful. I've been to your lovely country, but in summer. My niece just arrived in neighboring Denmark to do a semester in Copenhagen studying environmental things. Boy I love that city. Anyway, those temps you mention, ouch! Even without the bum ticker, that's tough. And I stay inside all day anyway. ;-)Originally Posted by Dreamwoven

Wise man. Life without a cuppa is scant worth living. I myself just acquired some emergency fire making materials. I've never actually used my wood stove as an actual stove, but if need be I could boil water that way. Any particular YouTubers you watch, Pren?

No not really, Peter Friebel on survival tracker is the man, but I tend to search by subject, like "post apocalypse tea making".
ay up
Heh, and I'll bet there are some. The post-apocalypse and survivalist thing has been going on so long now that you see videos like "Improved Atlatl making, part 2" or "Wattle and daub hut making." ;-)

Well, lads, this is it, if you live in the northeast, anyway. It's bleedin' cold already and going down to 25 to 30 below zero this weekend. I'd like to take this opportunity to say blimey. I've done my grocery shopping and brought in some wood for the old stove. I shall be hunkering down for the duration. Who else is currently beset by this winter siege?

That is cold, Tyrion. Here we have cold snaps like that but winters are mercifully short. Its a different story 800 miles north of here well above the Arctic Circle...
It is around midnight and 6 degrees Fahrenheit which is above 0 but below freezing which is 32 degrees. If I remember correctly. I don't know what that converts to in Celsius.

6 Fahrenheit is about 14.4 celsius. Just about at the limit of what I can do outside for a short while in full winter clothing, its the old ticker that makes it hard to do.
I'm discovering that the house I currently live in is damn cold. Having the central heating on full blast doesn't seem to make much of a difference, except to the gas bill. I've seen phoneboxes with better insulation than this place.
Still, lots of people wear three jumpers at the same time - right?
"I should only believe in a God that would know how to dance. And when I saw my devil, I found him serious, thorough, profound, solemn: he was the spirit of gravity- through him all things fall. Not by wrath, but by laughter, do we slay. Come, let us slay the spirit of gravity!" - Nietzsche
Its a problem especially in the UK where it is damp and often-just single glazed.
Right now it's 43 degrees Fahrenheit where I live, with a high of 66. Yesterday it was in the 70's. We think winter might be over. Kind of sorry not to get a snow day; on the other hand, I will be going to the dog park this afternoon and I'm looking forward to enjoying a warm, sunny afternoon.

Winter might be over in mid-February, that's nice.
If the jumpers are all young, female and attractive. A lot of the jumpers the fire department rescues around here are fat guys named named Lou.

We are now in the middle of what Swedes call Spring-Winter (Vårvinter). This lasts from February to early March in Southern Norrland.
it's only minus 3 on the Celsius at the moment but there was a decent storm yesterday and the day before. Still winter on the ice for sure.
