    This cold doesn't help at all when you're in pain. I stiffen up as I'm outside which causes huge tension and then aches, so I really feel for you having to deal with this all at once. Bring on Spring!!!!

    Managed to 'sverve' my mum as DS would say. Or is it 'patch' :rotfl:

    STill cold but not as bad as it was.
    Heating did not come on this morning as pressure had dropped again :mad:

    Shame about not meeting your mum. I hope the pain eases off for you. I struggle with cold weather and breathing sometimes. Hubby keeps saying we should live abroad but I'm quite partial to my seasons tbh. Nothing wrong with a quiet day. Do you have any indoor hobbies? Have a lovely day. x

    Sometimes sverving has to be done... I’m doing it tonight, fatigue and cold...

    What are you reading ATM ?

    I’ve just started Alison Weir and her Katherine of Aragon Tudor queen book

    As a dear MSE friend says “keep plodding” or
    What does the saying say.... When life hands you lemons, make lemonade
    Or as my Mum would say, brush yourself down, tomorrow is another day or
    Fake it, to you Make It
