I would have laughed too if it wasn't me.
It was snowing up in Aberdeenshire last week... I've only scraped the car twice so counting myself lucky. aren't cold snaps good? if the global warming gets too bad we'd just get mild but wet winters.Mortgage OP 2025 £7050/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

as if I would even contemplate anything more energetic! Last time vax was out it was because DS made me breakfast in bed and tripped over his own feet and threw the bowl of cereal and huge glass of milk over me...Mortgage OP 2025 £7050/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

i've had to scrape my car every day this week. in all honesty i don't like it when it's too hot i much prefer spring and autumn. the problem is that i have patio doors that are 9 x 8ft and although are double glazed they are letting so much cold in, and i've got lined curtains on them.
OH and i have decided to make some fleece curtains to sit inside the frame as a second pair to cut out the drafts.0 -
