Brian

I appreciate your post. It prompted me to check the forecast for tonight.
It looks like being a hard frost here in Cheshire.

I've just been down to the boat to drain the fresh water system. When I went 
down
the temperature was +1 C  and 20 minutes later it was -1 C. The mop on the 
roof
is frozen solid and the bungee ties on the rear cover are also solid.

Last year I was caught out by a sudden frost of -10 C early in November. It 
popped
out a chromed shower pipe which was lying in the shower tray and bent like a
windlass! Surprisingly, the Morco water heater survived without any damage.

I can sleep peacefully tonight!

Phil
