We've had cold days in August before and then it has warmed up again - so let's hope this is just a blip ;)

You are stuffed. Prepare to suffer. And learn to not close curtains.

:rofl:. We did a reccee in Jan 05 just to see how cold, cold is :eek:. We actually loved it and thought -10 felt warmer than -1 over here, but it was a tad nippy when we went dog sledding and hit -42. I'm just glad I didn't get caught short whilst out in the woods..brrrrrrrrr

Why wouldn't we close curtains? I am intrigued.

I should have been more specific. In Winter, if it's really, really cold outside, closing heavy curtains can isolate the window panes from the heat inside. Any moisture in the air indoors can freeze on the glass. Even double glazing.

I've seen it happen.

I didn't think there was much point in people opening curtains for you these days.:p
