It was -1.5 degrees when I got in the car this morning and the steering wheel hurt my hands. By the time I came back from the walk with Daughter and dogs it was 2 degrees and I was roasting in all my layers.

I'm doing a Dublin jigsaw at the moment and I find myself talking to myself in what I think is an Irish accent. We've been to Dublin and I have to admit I didn't even know they had a zoo, but there are bears and lemurs and tigers popping up all over the place. As well as the Dubliners and U2.

Am I right in thinking that Brits measure distance in Imperial but degrees in metric?
Were those swimmers deliberately taking a polar bear plunge, I wonder?
They swim all year around, Debra.
We use metric for length more now - unless you're old and still think in inches -but still have miles. Degrees in centigrade as opposed to Fahrenheit, which it was when I was younger.
Two degrees felt like a heat wave after the negative temp, didn't it? I must brag that my car has a heated steering wheel, which I will probably use no more than once a year, however. It's also heated in the summer when I don't want its warmth.
Love,
Janie
It's going to be minus 5 tonight - possibly colder in Swansea?
I don't know how people can get themselves to get in freezing cold water like that.
So jealous!
Oh brrr.
Good for the immune system allegedly!
