GRRRR, damn cold weather froze all my doors up solid this morning. Couldnt get in no matter how hard i tryed. Doors were firmly stuck as if someone had superglued them on! Cup of warm water did the trick though.

living in the south no problem YET []
I had the snow flake show for the 1st time this morning and I live in the South East (Essex). Had trouble opening the door but it did open. Then took me 10mins to scrape the ice off with my Wollice & Grommit ice scraper/glove []!
A quick tip, but some very luke warm water in a big squeezy washing up bottle and use that to squirt at any problem point. Sad as it sounds, i take mine into the bath in the morning and fill it up, by the time im outta the bath it's cooled down enough not to do any damage and i'm saving the ozone by not using de-icer and i'm recyling not only water but a plastic container!! Smart eh!
Mine was very bad this morning and, being a diesel, took ages to warm up. Made me wonder what these cars are like in Germany, where it gets really cold a lot more often. [xx(]
