Freezing, my three in 1 jacket, scarf and gloves(Don't like hats) have all been used overe the last couple of days. Just glad i don't live too near the sea now as it would be alot colder.

Absolutely perishing!! It's so cold in here that a drink from the cupboard is colder than one from the fridge.

) so changed to a wizard mattress topper which is lovely and no maintenance.

What kind do you have Teenybash.

Where did you get your feather beds? I used to have one and it was great!

**Liz** · 08-Oct-09, 20:27

I got mine from QVC.

They have the Northern Nights range which is really good.

I saw my first Robin yesterday and he was back again today, lovely little thing!

The weather has been lovely this week for being outside, make the most of it, I say!

It is so lovely and cosy and you don't get that horrible 'cold spot' you can get when you have to get out of bed and climb back in.

Have just purchased Northern Nights today,on QVC.

I picked up a lovely pair of leather gloves tonight from TK max, with Thinsulate padding on the inside, much better now!

I bought mine from an Ebay shop and it cost just over £40 including postage......money definately well spent.

It was 2.5 degrees here in Wick last night! Just a bit nippy for this time of year, I've succumbed and bought an electric blanket.

I've had to give in and put the storage heaters on so this year winters early.

Its not a patch here on the cold you get in Thurso though,your wind is like razor blades.

My car gave me its first 'Risk of Ice' warning of the winter last night. As I was driving through Gillock, the temperature was showing as one degree.

I haven't been warm for over a week. Just think, we still have the real winter months to look forward to!
