I Hate Winter!

Today has been horrible and foggy and damp, tomorrow will probably be the same. Classic Car meets aren't Classic Car meets you don't see the Classics Going out is just not worth it because it's cold and wet There is only the upcoming spring and summer to look forward to, oh I hate winter

Can't wait for the spring to come!

I'm dreaming of a white, very cold, frosty, snowy Christmas in my modern, heated, very warm, comfortable, dry BMW. Making money in these difficult times.

It's not even winter, yet! Not for another three weeks and two days. Enjoy the last vestiges of autumn but bundle up warmly. It was 24°F (screw that Celsius crap) this morning.

I've seen only one white Christmas since 1966; in 2006.

What that in degrees C? lol!

Christmas, I will be spending mine close to here - Extra points for guessing where this is, points taken off for "OPC". First time I've not spent Christmas somewhere hot though

Still have my own modern comfortable and warm BMW!! So will not take the MG when it is snowing!

Are you flying or driving? If driving, that Chunnel crossing costs a king's ransom.

Get yourself a proper Down or Primaloft jacket. I had to endure -12 deg on top of the Grand Motte, Tignes a week ago. With the 70mph winds that was a wind chill of over -24 deg. I was toasty in my ski kit
