Rubbish, if its raining and I`ve got stuff to do outside, it gets done. You don`t get hypothermia that easily, believe me I`ve had it twice. If you work in an industry that involves being outdoors 95% of the time you should be prepaired to work out in the elements.

What about other trades aswel, plasterers and joiners would be ok to work if they are inside but what about the rest? Is my first winter so dont really know.
| I'm sure you will turn up 3 hours late, get out of your van, tut and shake your head and draw in your breath, light a fag and blow it in my face and say 'sorry mate, too dangerous to start the work today, my men aint got there winter boots wiv em'
You'll then get back into your van, sit there for 10 mins working out where the nearest cafe is, when you have found that out, you'll drive off there having clocked off work at about 11am.
Evewn if you did manage to do (and this is a oke in itself) a FULL day of work in thw winter, you would turn up about 10am and be finished by 2pm anyway.
So in answer to your question, I wouldn't worry about working in winter. The magic word here is work and you have no idea what that means.
