Excellent Paul! Must have been a shock when you pulled the curtains.

How long were the icicles?

Up to 1m but mainly 40-50 cms. The length varies during the day - at the moment they are dripping away but it is getting dark and the temperature is falling so they will start getting longer, I should think.

I think the water is concentrating here because it's below the outlet from our central heating boiler.

That's massive!

The largest ones I have seen are on street lights but I imagine they are only about 30-40cm at the most.
