omigosh Cotty, is that supposed to be funny?!?!?! -10?!?!? In the very coldest time in our winter, it gets down to a very minimum of 2 degrees C at night time, but will always still get to around the 20-25 degrees C mark during the day. Rain I can handle, snow would be a novelty for a week or so, but more poor hubby would have kittens if I came back with my butt frozen off from being -10!! I think I'll definitely be visiting in June! (which I would prefer for the Solstices anyways)...
BTW, if you've frozen your butt off a number of times - it should be great to share the back of tvs car with you for 7, nice and ROOMY... Might even bring my pillow... ;-) tan. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Cotty" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "pentax list" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, December 10, 2003 2:45 AM Subject: Re: GFM Attendees (updated) > On 9/12/03, [EMAIL PROTECTED] disgorged: > > > BTW, I > >am the biggest baby when it comes to the cold and just don't think I could > >handle an English or Irish winter - mind you, you may not have to worry > >about those 'decibels' if I did come then, all you would hear would be my > >teeth chattering and my knees knocking together! lol... > > The UK and Ireland generally have fairly mild winters.
