Unusual temperatures for this month. We use to get this cold in January. -18°C this morning - from our kitchen window. Thank God for engineering and triple glazed windows. I've never been freezing indoors in Finland, Sweden or Norway. But a lot in other warmer European countries.
@tanjaostman us British have houses designed for mediocre weather... they have to cope with lots of conditions, that are generally mild...
We like cold weather, as a family, but houses over here just aren't designed for lots of very cold weather, or very hot weather either
@Berrybunchfamily I have only visited UK once. It was appr 15 years ago when one of my sisters lived in Manchester (I flew to Liverpool). I went there in December and was freezing all the time. The houses were so cold. To be honest with you. 🙂
@tanjaostman Manchester (pronounced Manchestoh lol)
A happy place for me - and somewhere you can buy pudding, chips and gravy (suet pastry steak and kidney pie 🙂 and gravy that adds to the experience)
Yes houses aren't kverly well built for the cold
We run out home at 17-18 degrees. Some people have asked for us to put the heating up....it's a healthy Temperature :-) so we suggest a cup of tea, of to keep their coats on lol
