Ha ha Lewis, I recall my first "cold" astro observing night in Canberra back in Autumn 1984...it got down to about 2 or 3 dec C and I was bluudy freeeezing!! I had lived all my life in Newcastle and such single digit temps were unheard off!...I quickly came to enjoy the relatively common mid winter -6 or -7 degC's....you guys will eventually love it too, warm fires, warm Gluhwein, wee single malt dram's etc aaahhh
