Brrr that is pretty cold, ramp up the PCs and generate some heat. We have been quite lucky this year, we managed -15 last year but only a -10 so far this year, and we missed all the snow!!! It snowed all around us, but I guess we were just that little bit too high and cold for it to come here apart from a few hours worth which didn't settle.

So glad I don't live anywhere near Siberia.

Stay warm Mike.

I'm very glad that I'm down-under just now

last week we got to 27 most days, this comming week is looking to be a bit cooler (I hope)

this is the area I live, called Totara Park, in Upper Hutt
