Well...you know every single item you have in your wardrobe?...bring all of it so you have lots of layers. Either that or buy a decent winter coat, sweaters, thermal underwear, hat, gloves, snow pants and boots when you get here.

Wrong. The correct answer is "a latex mask".

I was thinking of that one but then figured it wasn't specific enough. :p

I can't find any daily info for London unfortunately but if the OP doesn't mind looking at the actual hourly info for January of this year perhaps it'll give them a clue. ;)

They can choose the days they'll be in London and see what is was like this year last year or any other year (all the way back to 1953) for that matter. :p

Buy stuff over here instead of in the UK - go to Marks Work Warehouse or even Walmart (they sell wellies that are rated down to minus 80!!!!)
