Well I've lived in Norway for a year now and I prefer the colder weather there. Always feels stuffy and muggy when I'm back in UK now. I always did prefer winter to summer though so. When it's too hot I find it hard to work/concentrate/sleep.

Perfect weather = Clear sky, sunny, fresh, cold frosty days :D

You guys got any tips for this warmblooded yet coldhearted creature to stay warm and alive when I visit? ;)
Yeah go in a warm bar and pay £10 a time for beer. Or shag a Norwegian hooker. They are about £10 a time as well. Gen is anyway. Erm...so I heard.
