Preparing for Winter

csarina

Stove in and working. Cannot believe the amount of heat it generates, the eco fan on the top is pushing it out into the rest of the house.

Heres to a cosy winter.

we've had our thick winter duvet on all summer. i am thinking i will have to buy another winter one to have on top of the one we already have , when it is winter tho. otherwise i'll be freezing. hubby doesn't feel the cold in bed like i do. i like to snuggle.

We have had a 10.5tog quilt on all summer, never even thought of getting the lighter one out......I may even have yo put the 13.5tog on before long.....its quite chilly at night,

I still have my light summer duvet on but it was a bit chilly last night. I think I'll leave it on but wear warm PJs tonight. I'm still telling myself summer isn't over yet!

I've had my 13.5tog on all summer too. I washed the "summer" one - it's 9 or 9.5togs - today and had it out all day in the sun. It's back in the dryer now, I think I might need both on the bed, even with my electric blanket, but it will be down in the livingroom with me when I'm home alons too, to keep me warm without putting the heating on.

We really need a new suite, ours is 11 years old and although it was really expensive when we bought it and fantastic quality, it is really scabby now, the leather is badly scratched and pitted and stretched, so I want to get a new one before the VAT increase kicks in next year. But...all the shops will have new year sales, which might still be cheaper than buying before then, what do you all think? Not strictly preparing for winter, but it is, because I want my house nice and cosy and the new suite will be part of that.
