    I'm going to keep you all in suspense. Some of the household are still sleeping. Lazy sods, some of us have been standing around in the cold for hours :rotfl:

    I have a faux fur shoulder wrap I got in one of the M&S sales many moons ago, it is amazing how warm it keeps you, so I would say a good scarf would help.

    Hehe not a bad problem to have :)


    I bought a black imitation fur jacket from Primark for £19 the other week. Perfect for the job xx
    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.
  • Thank you Davemorton :-). Building a wood store is the next thing in my husband's list of jobs ;-).
