Yep I had ice on my windscreen too at 6am this morning. Had forgotten what it's like to try and drive down the road while the windscreen is defrosting!!

Yeah it was 2 degrees when I was driving home at 5am this morning. Great morning for a hot water bottle and fantastic sleep. Got up this afternoon & the sun is shining.
Back to Hevs tomorrow to shift more soil, anyone who fancies a meet up at Hevs bring your own shovel.

Yup...bloody cold up here in Bendigo too....

Had a very icey deck this morning. Damn near went assoverapex this morning...and for those of you that know me....you can imagine how funny that would have looked...

Anyway...not really got anything new to add to the thread. I got half an hour left of work and only 8 posts till I hit 2000....wondered if I could hit it before I got home

yes - he was buried in the Muslim cemetry behind our house , then his father, Al Fayed, applied for permission to bury him in his back garden(he lives in a large house and garden in Surrey somewhere, so 6 weeks later Dodi was exhumed and re buried.

do you mean ice, or frost - or less.?

It's bizarre, we always get people saying how cold it must get where we are 'in the hills' but I've never even had a light frost.
