Preparing for Winter V

@MrsCD It might be better to look online and have them delivered to the local store. The best prices are when nobody is thinking about the next winter.

Thanks for the tip, @Nelliegrace
@catz4m8tz, the last winter I worked in a shop, the temperature got down to around 4°C as we had to keep the door open all the time! I wore...a thermal long sleeved top, a long sleeved base layer top, a wool cardigan and a thick gilet over them. Bottom half had thermal tights, trousers, long thermal wool socks and furry lined boots. Fingerless gloves completed the designer ensemble! I had a flask of tea stashed in one of the drawers too. 😁

@catz4m8z Incontinence mats as an insulating layer and warm dogs on the bed? Newspaper or brown paper was used as insulation between the blankets to keep warm at night. Since she was poorly our old dog sleeps on a rug at the foot of the bed. She finds the warmest place above my hot water bottle.
