Brrrrr
« on: 04 January 2010, 07:59:43 »

Cold one today, lowest I've ever seen at home...

-8!

took ages to clear the car, had to resort to my pet hate of warm water

got in, drove off and door swung open, caught it no problem, but the git wouldnt latch, had to hold it shut all the way to work!
managed to shut it ok once parked, but secure enough at work anyway.
