Comments
We just got back from a week in Boston - It was minus 3 to minus 10 most days with a windchill of minus 25. - not too bad we thought - then realised that was farenheight - not Centigrade like in the UK. So it was really minus 20 to minus 45 C. - a bit chilly after all.

I loved your little story about the temps in New England and the rest of the U.S., especially the last line. I wish it could have been the Cleveland Indians, because that will probably be the only time the win for sure.
