I felt distinctly under-dressed in shirt and suit. But the locals' approach to dress is simple: if the sun shines (and it very rarely does in Glasgow), it must be the height of summer. So the fashion must suit the season. Below: A group of Glaswegians sets off for a night on the toon.
Temperature a mere +8C, with wind chill factor, it feels like +5C (the English language still lacks a word for temperatura odczuwalna). It would not get any warmer on their journey home from pub, club or restaurant!

Not true. It's called "wind chill".
@ Jerzy Stachowiak:
Let's imagine a day where the temperature is +0C, there's no wind at all, but relative humidity is 90%. Now imagine a day where the temperature is also +0C, there's also no wind, but relative humidity is only 45%. Which day feels colder? The term 'temperatura odczuwalna' takes air humidity into account, 'wind chill does not'. The term 'wind chill' only looks at one factor; 'temperatura odczuwalna' takes in many. Here endeth the first lesson :)
