Get a good pair of wind proof gloves, I buy mine a little large, then if its really cold put a thin pair underneath. As you warm up, take the unders off.
Being a bit large means that you won't get squeeze with under gloves on, causing your circulation problems (hence cold).
Water proof gloves keep your sweat in, mostly.
Hope this helps, Carl

I have a pair of Windproof and Winter Sealskinz gloves - the windproof ones have been out in all weathers, seem to be waterproof too without being too bulky. The winter ones are really warm but find them a tad bulky Not cheap but then again I hate being cold so worth every penny.
Bonus for me is that when you take your hands out the inner liner doesn't seem to follow on either pair, had a pair of Altura Winter ones and used to spend hours trying to poke the inner liner back into them.
All the best
Nick

I use Gore Bike Wear gloves (not sure on the exact type) with a pair of glove liners underneath. You also can't beat the £4 Aldi gloves and again pair of liners with them. You can pick the glove liners (Karrimor ones) up from Sports direct dead cheap. And its also worth having a spare pair in the bag in case the ones you wear get wet. And don't wear gloves that are too tight, they'll restrict your blood flow in the hands resulting in colder fingers  Or there's always these which are supposed to be the dogs www.ajbikeequipment.com/page2.htm

Thanks for the replies I'll take a look over the weekend, ps like the idea of the bar mitts with a hot pasty in each one for extra comfort

chiba drystar's are very good warm and breathable, think I'm gonna order my second pair as they're looking a bit tatty, I've had them for about 4 years and used them for snowboarding holidays as well.
