I have a large humidifier I had to buy and it’s on constantly each day throughout the Winter. It has to be. If say, I turn it off for a week then my nose bleeds to fuck, skin gets flaky, etc.

Crawling along the underside of an oil rig in January last year, just off Burntisland. 

Pulling in cables and it was about -4, but the windchill took it to about -10 or so. 

Decided there and then I would never be back on a rig again.

This morning. Scraping mine and the Mrs cars. Minus 8 

I hate this weather. 

See, that's what real men do.

I've been retired for several years now, but I still get up to scrape and warm up Lady Flure's vehicle for her on mornings like these.

Just to make sure she gets to work.

-25 Celcius in Siberia - I was outside in a T Shirt to prove to Russians, it wisnae cold  

Think it was edge of the Atrctic Circle

Atyrau in Kazakhstan also used to be cold  - i would take short cut from pub, across the iced  100 wide river (taxis took the same shortcut)  - I walked from Asia to Europe on the river  - well what the signs on both side of the bridge said

-37 in Edmonton 5/6 years ago, which dropped to -47 with the wind chill. So cold that it was painful to breathe if you didn't give yourself a coule of seconds to adjust before breathing in.

I've always wondered why people choose to live in places where it gets that cold? I would imagine the summers are nice enough but that kind of temperature is barely habitable if you ask me. Fair enough if you're born there you don't necessarily know any different but why move there?

 

Although in saying that, extreme temperatures are maybe more bearable than our constant damp greyness.
