Best day's work I have had for a while
Drove down from west coast of Scotland to North Wales last night to do some site visits today. Enroute temps were -11 on Beattock and Shap, and -12 between Corwen and Bala with freezing fog just to add to the fun. Woke up this morning to -14 and found the B&B central heating was not working!
Have had a superb day driving round my childhood haunts all over Snowdonia, with clear skies and temps getting as high as a positively balmy -3C but typically between -7 and -10C. I have never seen Snowdon as clear as this in over 50 years of visiting.

Love North Wales, did my Summer Mountain Leaders there and have done a lot of climbing in Llanberis Pass and the slate quarries and kayaking on various rivers !
Nothing beats a cold clear day.. .other than being stood atop one of the hills I want to see the sweets before I get into your windowless van... I'm not stupid!
