Cool effect, but cold?  Looks like 10 degrees in 'Lerwick' today. Like a nice, spring day. It was -40 with the wind chill where I'm at last week.

hi UI,

I did say chilly, not cold!
;)
it is Scotland after all!
-40 is positively Baltic!! (colloquial)
:)

Baltic, huh?  I'm afraid I'm not familiar with that phrase.  We just call it November thru February.   ;D
