I decided to head out first thing this morning to give the Mrs 133 a wash as it had been about 3 weeks.

Car was showing -7 when I started it up. I let the car run whilst I was washing it but the spoiler still froze whilst I was trying it and intially the wheels ended up with thick ice on them, that was just during rinsing!! :lol:

Still, used some Bilt Hamber Autowash which I ended up with in error but it's actually a great product. Oh and I've now got my own personal ice rink!

Oh well at least if it snows and the car sits under a layer of ice for a few days at least the paint work is clean and salt free. :D
 
i tired to wash mine last weekend but couldnt even get water out the pipe to rinse it. it was all frozen so gave up.
 
I went out last night... -8 and forgot to wear a long sleeved stop under my gilet... So I was sleeveless, drunk and cold all at the same time.

I did have to thaw the outside tap with warm water before I started! lol

my friend passed out in a park last night in just a tshirt, safe to say he isnt very well today :')

Gotta be very careful with things like this. A friend of my mum's son had been out for some drinks and missed his train home. Decided to sleep on the station platform whilst waiting for the trains to start running and never woke up due to it being so cold. :(
 
I tryed to polish the scratch out Rachel's car but had no luck

Apart from that ive been asleep on the sofa lol
 
Ventured out for a while in the snow to town and got some warm fluffy slippers in the end.
 
Looks like I can't drive to work if this stays over the weekend... 13 miles of narrow country roads in this weather.
