It looked like a hot day. He was very lucky with the good weather.

@sagqe Traditionally we drunk very strong brandy heated on the fire, in Bulgaria. I never understood why it has to be heated in the winter, but when it is hot it does actually warm you up a little. Then again, if get a -15 or a -20 day, we call that a very cold winter in Bulgaria. So I guess cold alcohol is a definite no-no.

@dabtican4953 Ukraine is scary cold in the winter too. I had to wait for a interstate bus outside. I had two pairs of thick socks and I couldn't feel my feet after a couple of hours. Finland must even colder.

@dabtican4953 If it gets -15 to -20 on very rare occasions, we call that a very cold winter in Bulgaria. LOL

@ForgottenWeapons Two pairs of wool socks didn't do anything for me when I was visiting Ukraine in -20. Waiting for an interstate bus, I couldn't feel my feet after a couple of hours. The wind was cutting like a knife. I bought a bottle of brandy from the kiosk and drunk the whole bottle in one go. That made feel cold in the body as well. It made it worse.

@JH-lo9ut Yes, that shocked me so much, I always buy one size up boots even though I live in a semi-tropical climate, now. I remember when I finally reached my destination in Ukraine, I soaked my feet in hot water and was in agony from that too. I have heard stories that people keep fires under their trucks at some places in Sweden, to be able to start their engines. It is amazing that you can work when it gets this cold.

@moosemaimer I used to hate it and we are warm country by European standards. I go outside during winter, I get 15 minutes of needles going through my hands, then after that they go numb for the rest of the day. Ian is still lucky he got a nice warm day in Finland. LOL
