Ive got some all juice cider im about to bottle and after reading posts on here i decided i should drop the temp in my fermenterator to 2C a couple of days ago. Now Ive realised Ive got to bottle carbonate, so will my yeast survive?

Yes.
Yeast become dormant with cold - they won't die (not specifically because of the cold anyway)

Thanks Manticle, quick helpful advice as usual. What Im thinking i will do is rack this lot into a cube, bulk prime it then bottle half before adding some lactose to the other half for the missus. should i then just let the bottles come back up to room temp or should i store them at say 15C for a few weeks?
