I had to go to get my shopping in town instead of online. Waiting for a cab afterwards and my feet were freezing. Really freezing I had to walk about and jump to keep feeling in my toes. I was very close to frostbite.
The coldest I've ever felt was when I was staying in a horrid, drafty, delapidated, ramshackle hotel just outside stranraer.
If you asked for another blanket the staff just gave you a weird stare like you were asking for a rocket to the moon.
Fortunately, I was in a room with 2 single beds so I stripped the sheets and blankets off the other bed and, when that didn't help, I ended up using the matress off the other bed like a super-duvet.
It was so cold that every morning there was ice on the inside of the windows and, what was worse, the ice had whizzy patterns carved into it by the drafts blowing through the room.
I've been in much colder places but you normally get fancy cold weather gear so it isn't actually too bad.
Have you ever been so cold that your snot freezes up inside your nose? And then had Finnish people laughing at you and saying, "oh, it gets much colder than this.."
Back in November or December when the bus didn't turn up at the end of a night shift and I had to wait for the next one, which was an hr later. Then a wait for the next bus at the bus station and a ten minute walk back.
Probably one of those nights when I 'roughed it' back in my school days. Usually ended up in the middle of a field or some bus shelter at 4 in the morning coming down from a high and absolutely freezing cold just wanting my warm bed.
I would say that time I managed to get off alive of a sinking ship and managed to find a floating door to lay on in the middle of the atlantic ocean, bloody freezing

Worse than the sea in April, and that's bloody cold.

someone once told me that the coldest they had ever felt was in New York in winter.
I felt warmer standing on top of glaciers.
I know what you mean. I felt warmer snowboarding in the highest French Alps resort. I think it must have something to do with being near the sea.
I think it has something to do with the westerly winds blowing in the icy air from the interior.
are you Kate Winslet?
That's what the Koelsch is for.
