GregP Dec 2024 12:11pm, 6 Dec 2024 153,996 posts	0 GregP We should have a ‘sodding cold’ death match. I think Platform 10 at Stratford (SRA) could do well. And Steve Austin, obviously.

My feet (in walking boots) froze to the ground and my breath froze around the inside edge of my hood. Mini Nico ran round for 80 minutes in a pair of shorts and never moaned once.

TROSaracen Dec 2024 2:09pm, 6 Dec 2024 28,533 posts	0 TROSaracen Arse, I’m moving to South(ish) Devon on December 18th. I don’t remember ‘sodding cold’ being included on the particulars.
Ocelot Spleens Dec 2024 2:11pm, 6 Dec 2024 40,022 posts	0 Ocelot Spleens Gayfield Park, hone of Arbroath FC is sodding cold. The coldest I ever was in Brasov Romania, -26C, that's sodding cold.
TROSaracen Dec 2024 2:20pm, 6 Dec 2024 28,534 posts	0 TROSaracen I’ve skied in Banff, Canada in January. It’s sodding cheap because even Canadians think it’s too sodding cold. After enduring several days around the -15C mark we had a cold front move in - 34C. They closed the main ski resorts as the metal in the chair lifts would have been extremely brittle and likely to break. The resort close to town was open. The shop was doing a roaring trade in ‘got anything for Frostbite’. Skiing was nearly impossible as it was too cold for the slight melt you need for skis to slide. It was sodding cold. Do I win £5?

This is a nice easy deathmatch, not had to humbug on anything.
