    So you dont need a extra pair of trousers then bully boy? Mind you here in west coast of finland is now -13 celsius and should be -21 before tommorow morning. When you live on the coast the wind is cold during the winter and if you have -13 by the sea it feels the same as -23 in the middle of the country.

    There isn't much wind when you have a massive island sheltering you. Its warmer in the winter and a bit cooler in the summer. People would be dying all over the place if we ever got to -13 here.

    I dont like it warm indoors, I suffocate when people have their CH set to over 22C. I like it warm outside but like it cool inside.

    Being able to sleep perfectly is great when everyone else has to suffer in the heat. Smug mode is on permanently when we have a heatwave. :grin:

    SB- best keep checking your BHX for tmrw mate. My Mrs just tx to say loads of flights already canx at LHR and it ain't THAT bad to be honest, think BHX has got it worse.

    It's coming down quite heavy now, earlier in the day than expected, which might be good if it stops earlier. The BHX website has just one incoming from Guernsey cancelled and a few minimal delays, nothing out of the ordinary. They are more concerned about people leaving enough time to get to the airport......big feather in their cap if they keep up a decent service while LHR crumbles. Hope it gets its runway extension soon, 1 flight a day to the States is pathetic.....

    Oh well........more overtime for me I guess :)
