It's cold over here in durham too. I was up at 6-30 this morning to do a paper round, and I don't know what was worse-wearing hats and gloves, and so have sweaty hands and head, or take them off, and be apsolutly freezing!

Oh, and by the way, happy advent :D (in 4 hours, 54 minutes).

It's not too bad down here in Wales, only had one really frosty morning (Saturday) so far. And advent has already started - it's Advent Sunday today.
