need to apply some low temp. grease to the wheel bearings. the buggers squeal louder than a gloster fan when they lose.

Thought you'd be used to the cold Tel. I was driving between jobs this afternoon and the aircon in the car was struggling with the heat. I was on the coast road and when I came to a nice quiet spot I pulled over, stripped off and took a run into the sea. I was in the water for less than a minute and it was so cold I was already numb from the waist down so I know how you feel.

**edit** I just read this post back and something doesn't sound right.

Not jealous at all!! Must be ssssooo hard for you when the air con fails!!! This is the view from my "office" today, just before the cold rain hit. Waterproofs on shortly afterwards lol



The plant room felt like the Tropics in compression lol.

Agree... any job that involves human waste and electrics should be handed over to a plumber with a part PEE qual

I agree Tel. Its my bloody hands!!! They get so cold. The rest of me is boiling but my hands start turning to ice even in this fairly mild weather. Half framer gloves, a hand warmer in each pocket as a treat every 30 mins and a polite cough for a warm cup of tea generally helps.... but they just get cold again!

Plus everyone wants an outside light at this time of year!!! :frown2:

its nice up here. rarely goes below zero.
and not much snow. where I come from it will snow, dogs will sh*t on it, it will melt a bit, got covered with road gritting mess, more snow, more sh*t, then it all melts down in the spring...

I think you missed your vocation, you should have been in the tourist industry as an ambassador for you area
