I built my current garage (my second in five houses) back in 2006-ish. Nice smooth concrete floor, no drafts, insulated but no heat (yet). Unfortunately, the insulation moderates the temp inside where it's often colder in than out. Right now, at 11am in New England, it's the same temp inside as your place (3C/37F) - Must be why they call this "New" England, right?

Just got my car up on jack stands a couple of days ago as I'm doing some mods to the gas heater control circuitry. The heater's in the nose of the car so half the time I get to sit on a roll-around shop stool and the other half I'm lying under the dash. That whole under-dash thing gets old quickly when you're my age.

So what do you do when you're not spanning on the car, and did Portsmouth get hit by Storm Filomenia as Spain did?
