Worked with a Canadian guy a few years back. He was living over here coz he was married to a Spanish girl. He told me he'd been living for a few months in Santander (North coast of Spain) and had spent the winter up there. He said he'd never been so cold in his entire life.

I believe that. The coldest I've felt in years was 2004, spent 3 weeks in Australia in July.
