Yes, not the best weather to be working on a car! I was out for an hour or so earlier making a start on Tango's timing belt/water pump swop after the bearings in his water pump gave out and he ended up getting AA'd to mine! Just got to tension it, check it, re-assemble it and flush/refill the coolant when I get back home tonight.

I've changed two core plugs and a set of wheels and tyres last night and it said minus 18 on the thermometer.
