I like the 5 degree drop very rapidly around 11PM. I had gone in doors and eaten a lot of nice cheese and had a few drinks and then was a bit taken aback at the temperature when I went back out to head home. And that was wrapped form head to foot in thermals and my warmest hillwalking clobber </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=1814#post-18206 Fri, 03 Dec 2010 10:13:10 +0000 cb 18206@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Radio Scotland said -12 last night for Edinburgh, and it was -20.1 in Braemar.
