Its been really mild up here of late, so I really feel for Rictus123 if he is getting worried about the cold
The worst I`ve witnessed was a spell of weather, where the inside of our sheds was -8C during the day and -22C at night for about a week. The frost got a foot into the ground, I think it was the winter of 95, or maybe 94.
winter of 95 it was, that was the time at Christmas time when it was about -10-15C in Glasgow and lower than -20C at night. I remember sitting in my gran's house playing a Megadrive with my jacket and my gloves on as her heating was broke

I was out trying to dig out the foundations for a path :eek: The river tay froze over in parts as well and the ice on the pond where I worked was about a foot and a half thick That was the winter Braemar got down to -28c, which still hasn`t been beaten.
The diesel in all our machines froze, so we had to make little fires around the fuel filter to get it to mave through the system as well.
In all that cold, you never thought about going home because it was too cold. Nancy boys of today look for any excuses not to work
