By heck

[tonicha]

We're having a cold snap - and by heck, it's cold

To those of you used to almost freezing temperatures, I'm sure that 13C is not c old- but to us, it blinkin' is And we«'re probably going down to single figures for the next few nights

The fire has been roaring - and I mean roaring - since 4.00 this afternoon. The air con - on heat - will be on later, to warm the bedroom up.

I've got three layers on, plus socks, slippers, the lot and I will, no doubt, have to get the hot water bottles in the bed, later

But tonights curry was so hot, we ended up stripping off

I am trying to feel sorry for you, honestly I am!!!

[tonicha]

This was very tongue in the cheek stuff

But, when you've lived in a reasonably warm country for 9 years and you get a cold snap - it really gets in yer bones

And to my so-called friend Kim, who thinks Grumpy shouldn't have a fuel allowance - boo sucks - all of it went on a ton of wood. And the way we're having to use it - we'll need another ton in January

[Workingman]

TAKE THAT!

[tonicha]

To be honest, I was sat outside - not in the sun - until 5.00pm.

[Kaz]

You tell her Frank!!!

This was very tongue in the cheek stuff

I know!!

I'm sobbing into my hot chocolate for you.

Shame my tears are turning to ice. Must be because it's minus 2 outside.

But gosh, 13 degrees. Poor you.

[saundra]

TAKE THAT!

tough in sobbing to poor you

[tonicha]

I've just peeked outside

It's now down to 10C

Hot water bottles are being used for the first time this year - and I've just put the blanket on to put on the bed, as well as th duvet

[Diflower]

Aww Ton, my sympathy is genuine, honest
Stone floors and no central heating are no fun at 10 degrees.
It's zero here but at least we have carpets
