Snow is fun until you're stranded because the public transport system has packed in and the roads are gridlocked! Hopefully now we've had a couple of harsh winters, we're more prepared for it.

No chance I can survive in London in December with no coat on.

depends how cold..sometimes it can be mild-ish tho for you that would still be freezing and for the last 3 years it's been very bloody freezing. Is there no way you can wrap it round your waist? I have a ski jacket that is awkward to do that with and i look an idiot but needs must.

So true as you are currently struggling in a warm Sicily autumn I'm sure Nicky will keep you warm if we all get snowed in at the 02 arena!

I've never seen one. They have lockers which you can pay to put your stuff in. Yep, that's lockers like at a swimming pool. That place is full of fail.

I actually have a shorter kind of parka, but I've never ''tested'' it during cold times...I might give it a try before I leave, actually.

After months of convincing myself I'm not coming to this...

Damn you Manics.

I knew you would win in the end!
