You know it's here when you have to scrape the ice off your car and sit there for a while with the heating on full blast.
Roll on spring.

Re: Winter has arrived
Yeah, the first frost of winter in Bristol as well, I couldn't be bothered to scrape the car so I just put the heaters on and waited for it to melt!!

Re: Winter has arrived
Lovely, if fresh, ride along the Rea valley this morning. Very picturesque with all the frost on the grass. I did wear a buff under my cycling helmet, but the cold is nature's way of saying pedal faster and I'd worked up a decent sweat by the time I got to New Street.

Re: Winter has arrived
Worst feeling in the world scrapping off the ice at 0530 in the morning. Only thing I like about it being cold is you can snuggle up in front of the telly comment on the forum and not feel bad for not going out haha!!

Re: Winter has arrived
had to put my heated seats up onto level 2 twice this morning, it also took over 10 mins to scrape the ice of the car so I could drive it...Spudda wrote:I'm not one for gimmicks but heated seats were luuuuvley this morning

Re: Winter has arrived
It's gone very cold here and it's raining. I wouldn't be susprised if this turns into sleet.
