GPS Receiver returns 'Warming up...'

You go through a ford and the water freezes to the car. Wish I could get a pick, looks like I've been out in the arctic :)

Yes it's been rather cool this evening, 2 hours standing outside brewing tea/coffee and refuge for cold Scouts in warm 110 with Ebby running for those worst effected, got pic's of 3 trangi's 'steaming' nicely on the table (aka 110 front wing) but not much else, roads coming home ~21:30Hrs were slippery in places...

Spent the weekend in North Yorkshire with my Explorer Scouts - Saturday was 'interesting' walking weather.........freezing snow, that froze my rucksac catches solid - entertaining and funny to start with, then a right PITA and a serious issue when I needed to start handing out spare gear  :roll:

I had noticed that too, not quite cold enough to get the interesting frozen tyres effect yet though :)

Was reading -4.1 on the way through Southwick at 7:45 Alledgedly it got to -5 and looking at the cars I can beleive it.

Rabbit has no antifreeze either!  :shock:

The fun element of Scouting in the cold is not being cold, eh Jimbo, we had several turn up without hats or gloves and in trainers, so the warm 110 came in handy. Several Scouts have commented that I always seem to have everything we might need in it too, Be Prepared!
One girl, actually from a 'green' family, said my 110 is really cool, allsorts of useful gear and 'pretty' too!!! One more on *our* side ;-)

Brewing nicely:
