Re: Just how cold does it really get???
 

This was the 'Spring' visit to our villa, first week of March this year. The temps during the night were really really cold, although during the day it got well into the 70's, as can be seen by the sunlight behind the car!

:eek::eek: It was better than that here this March,don,t want to know my ears are closed LOL :rofl: OMG I,m really not giving my winter stuff away now,in fact I think I will have to prepare ,off to buy some more :eek:

Believe it or not, several people were complaining of feeling cold at the Northern C Blanca meet up in August this year. I think it was about 25 degrees at the time. :)

Our house is not far from Sam's and although we don't live there permanently like Sam - and are therefore not acclimatised - I still need a pair of slippers in the winter because the tiled floors are freezing! :ohmy:

Re: Just how cold does it really get???
 

Thats it :eek: going to buy some rugs also,the shopping list is getting longer:eek:

Re: Just how cold does it really get???
 

Yes you will need granny slippers AND big knickers. :)

Re: Just how cold does it really get???
 

OMG I did not realize how cold it gets until reading this thread...:eek:

Is there any subject that you don't have knowledge on? you are one clever bugger!!:D

Re: Just how cold does it really get???
 

Its all tied into climate and growing conditions.

That's a really good point :thumbsup:

Jean....................slippers are ESSENTIAL!
Last winter, my Dad sent me some Norwegian fur lined boot type slippers, because I was always complaining about the cold indoors :eek:
They were brilliant :thumbup:
It seems so strange to think that it won't be all that long until the cold starts creeping in; especially as I'm sitting here in T shirt, shorts and flip flops! :p

Honestly, last winter when I wanted to sit at the PC, I had to wear 2 pairs of socks, 2 sweatshirts, a fleece and GLOVES!! I kid you not :ohmy:

Don't be too put off though Jean - the other 3 seasons are fantastic, and more than make up for a couple of months of cold weather.

You need to add an electric blanket and 15 tog quilt to your shopping list ;)

Re: Just how cold does it really get???
 

It just sounds worse has the day goes on :eek: Gloves to use the PC :eek:
Big furry boots :eek: 15 tog quilt :eek: I don't even need that lot here :blink: I'm not going to be put off though :blink: Africa here I come.......:rofl:

Re: Just how cold does it really get???
 

:lol: Ohhh Jean - you are going to turn up looking like Eskimo Nell :rofl: Don't believe a word of it ;) Winters in Spain can't be half as bad as they are up north (speaking as a Lancashire lass born and bred - but I escaped when I was 20 :p) I have been back though and I still say if you are born up north you can handle the cold :thumbup: You will be ok.

P.s. Bring the quilts though, and don't throw the woolies out ;)

It does also depend a lot on the type of property. My apartment is modern and well insulated and can be heated within a few hours with gas heater and oil rads, even when it has been empty for a while and feels like a fridge.

However, all the things mentioned are valid. Like warm slippers and rugs etc., they really make the difference.

:eek:
Take heed of everything people say, I just looked at the first post by mistake and realised I do actually have furry earmuffs out there in the house, sad but true, you just never know when they might be needed!!:rofl:
OH says that us girlies are unbelievable for having or doing things just in case, like going to the loo, just in case, he firmly believs that you can only go if you need to, us girlies know better!!
Luv Eve
