I spent almost 9 weeks in Scotland from November 2008 to January 2009 and the only way I could warm up was to get in a hot bath..... brrrrrrr, I can't handle the cold anymore either.

All of a sudden I get a craving to be back in the dark, cold snowy UK, holed up in a country boozer with a huge log fire, a pint of Guinness and the smell of two English Setters snoozing themselves dry in front of the hearth.

My Gran's Lancashire Hot-Pot and a nice piece of Barmbrack with a couple of whiskeys.
The Snow and icy wind thumping at the door but all cozy and warm with the Coronation Street omnibus on the telly.

Do they still have that these days?

I have been reading that it is all knife crime and spending cuts.

You see!!! that is exactly my point when my wife say;Other people can handle with this weather... why can you??? my answer always is: You need to be raised here used to be at home watching TV or reading a book. I'm not that kind of person I like to be outside, I hate to be stock in the house.
I have a passion for Los colmados.

If you guys have the urge to complain about anything in DR, I wish you all a long week stay in london.

London, Ontario Canada... over a meter of snow in hours... get hard nipples as soon as you walk out the door ! Spent all day trying to get out of that damn city !

Come join me in Nueava Yol miamol, we are having a heat wave here, it hit 36F today. I may even break out the board shorts. Hopefully my Jetblue primo hooks me up with a ticket for next week to work on my tan.

My type of lady.

I enjoy this weather, especially during the holidays. March will be here in less than three months. :)

I m not really a winter wonderland dude. I like the fall and that is something I keep trying to show the islanders, the fall foliage Upstate NY and in New England. Next year I ll have to videotape a drive on the Taconic, I think.

That powder snow has snowmobile riding or cross country skiing written all over it....

And i would use any one of those means of transportation to get to the nearest airport and fly anywhere warm.

Nice and toasty in Sosua !...PC

It's 33 degrees here this morning about 40 miles North of Tampa, Florida.

The Heat Pump is covered in white ice!

The weather report is saying it's 23 degrees here

I am 3 season person and summer is not one of them. Its only December I'll start bitching in February. I work outside in NYC and didn't even wear a coat yesterday although I did break down and get a knitted cap.

This of course is a problem between my Dominican partner and I - he keeps turning the heat up, I keep turning it off
