    Currently, he's in the kitchen cooking bacon. No need to thank me, I'm glad to be of help.

      Currently showing -34C (-29F), with a daytime high of -31C (-24F). Fortunately, I don't need to leave the house. I feel for those that need to get out to go to work, or have to work outside in weather like this. Now, I think I'll emulate OriginalGriff and make myself a bacon sandwich for breakfast.

      Your thermometer must be faulty. Get a new one. You will instantly feel warmer. :laugh:

        Bacon can do many, many wondrous things. It can even turn vegans back to normal ... if they give it a chance.

          I think your thermometer is upside down, I just checked and it got to 31C today. hardest part of today's work was getting the beer down before it got above frosty. the poms der englishers would be happy, anything over 5 minutes and that beer is warm.

          after many otherwise intelligent sounding suggestions that achieved nothing the nice folks at Technet said the only solution was to low level format my hard disk then reinstall my signature. Sadly, this still didn't fix the issue!

              Central heating plays a major role. That and a certain amount of stupid stubbornness, I think.

                      Do they pay you for living there? and, if they do, is it really worth it? Otherwise I'd move to a warmer place like sunny Cancún or beautiful Cozumel. We are having a cold winter here in Guadlajra at 20°C and can't wait for spring! :)

                        Just keep ignoring the obvious. The bacon didn't do the pig that was wearing any :elephant:ing good, did it?

                                        Edmonton, Alberta. Colder here than Resolute Bay up in the high arctic, and they're not expecting sunrise for another 3 weeks or so. As long as its not too windy, and the sun is out and the sky is blue, it can have its perks. But once the lottery gods smile on my supplications, its Tahiti on the next flight out.
