HARD WINTER ?

[Pete Grey]

In the UK our winter weather, wet and not particularly cold unlike your (US) winters we think something like -7C or -8C is extremely cold, we also (unlike you) normally get very little snow.

Our winters are cold and wet, you need good clothing, layered for insulation and a good waterproof outer shell.

Having a good solid fuel stove and two tons of coal, and a few bottles single malt comes in handy.
