It's a good job we are considering moving to Scotland or the Isles.
Minus 5 degrees here with worse to come. The wind is bitingly cold, burns any exposed skin. We are out in the sticks and totally exposed to the wind from Siberia.
I'm looking forward to Scottish winters.
Hah! You might get the same oop north Gordon

We have been looking at the weather oop thur with some interest as you can imagine. Neither of us minds the cold too much and appreciate that going that far north is hardly likely to help! However, the main reason for going is the summer. It's just too damn hot down here. All the food we grow is based on a Brit diet and a lot of it is starting to suffer, especially the fruit. Really bad year and almost no jam made except from supermarket stuff which is severely lacking in flavour.
We want to continue growing our own food when we move. Orkney is doing quite well at the mo, looks nice. We just need a couple of acres and some room for a slot track for me and a short mat bowls area for Ronnie. She's the gardner too and a nice lack of grass would be good so I don't have to keep up that side of our agreement!
Have to finish the house here first, up to my eyes in sawdust today, doing partitions up in the attic so we can pretend it's a 4 to 5 bedroom house!

Minus 9 here this morning, and a light scrape of the windscreen was required.
It's a tad chilly, but not as cold as I have known it here.
