Yes, I know the feeling, I'm just over the M62 from you. My 60mile drive to work was fine, except the washer wouldn't work,and the stuff halfrauds sells freezes up at those temps, If only they would sell concentrated stuff so I can decide the mixture I want.

The lowest I've seen on my display is -4.5, but that was a week ago and it's been parked up since then as my usual workplace is only about 2 miles away.

I tried building an igloo earlier on, unfortunately after the snow has been lying for several days it still isn't compacted enough :(

Got my 35 tog sleeping bag with goretex bivvy so will be testing that under the stars and in the snow in minutes few!
