The snow gave up and went away down here. So it's bollock freezing and as ugly as ever.
I'm moving to Irkutsk. Svetlana the flame-haired Siberian temptress can have me. It's not like anyone else is that bothered.
I remember reading that in Verkhoyansk (Soviet prison town in the arse end of arctic nowhere) temperatures drop to a January average of -50C. I think that makes it the coldest continually inhabited place on Earth. Skiing, anyone?

I really had to laugh at how badly they coped with it in Cornwall last week. Then again I don't drive.

I'm useless in that kind of heat. I passed out in Italy in the freezer aisle of a supermarket on a day when it was 37 degrees
.
Good thing about the cold is you can wrap up to get out of it. In the heat you have no option but to walk around naked continuously chucking buckets of cold water over your head...
... there's a mental image for you, people!

BoF and
