Ollie, Gran's family came from Howarth. My husband and I went there one April, to see a friend of my husband's, who lived not far from a wind farm. I reckoned that since we were going in April, I wouldn't need my sheepskin boots. BIG mistake. After chatting to the friend for a while, I was so cold that I went and sat in the car, to get out of the wind. Still cold, I turned the engine on, but of course the car wasn't moving so the heater was pretty useless. It would take a good half hour of driving before I'd even begun to thaw out. If I'd been brought up in that area, I'd never have made it to my teen years!!! I live on the South Coast, the Isle of Wight is only a few miles away, and the climate is probably one of the mildest in the UK. Even so, when it's cold I don't go out.
