Yup, and here. Great time for my boiler to pack up!! I've got no heat and have just drained my water tank so that the pipes don't freeze and burst. I am sitting here in my freezing cold house, freezing... :snowing: :snowing: Luckily I can stay at Mum and Dad's till I get a new boiler which should be next Monday. :D

Incredible André :shock: :shock: :shock:
Here, it`s minus 7, but because of the heavy wind, it feels like minus 15, which you probably consider as mild 8-)

They showed pictures on the news yesterday that they had snow in many countries in Europe. Even Spain had some!! :D

I don´t mind the cold but I don´t like remove the ice from the car and having trouble opening the doors on it because they are sometimes frozen and almost impossible to open!! :banghead: :lol:

Once on another car I had I manage to break the handle when I was trying to open the door when it was frozen. Suddenly it broke and I stood there with only a handle in my hand!! :lol: I had to climb through the car to get to the seat!!

I agree...How on earth can you live with those temperatures????

Yesterday at night -1ºC at Bordeaux...and it is too much cold for me. I can imagine how I felt if I read -15 at the termometer :(

well, my spanish friends....we must survive, so we eat special dutch winterdishes ( you never heard of them, but we have a lot) , we dress warm and we put the heatting on so inside it`s cosy and warm,at least 21 degrees.
Waht`s killing us, is not the cold but the gas bill :(

It's pretty cold here too :shock:

Last night I went to a concert in Frankfurt. It was one of my favourite bands - Blood Red Shoes. Some of you may have heard of them. Or not :)

Anyway, they mentioned that they had to climb out of the window of their van because they couldn't open the doors :) :) :)

Well the snow made it over the big pond this weekend.

We woke up to a Winter Wonderland this morning..it's beautiful but soooo cold. We usually don't get that much snow in December (or any time of the year)..
