Our boiler was broken from Monday to Friday :shock: we had a few electric heaters but were also turning the grill on in the kitchen and leaving it open :P

Primark do £2 fleece blankets that are great for an extra layer in bed or curling up on the sofa.

With gloves layers work as well. Buying gloves with more than one layer helps. I had Thinsulate ones ... they had a fleece layer inside the wool layer.

Ed keeping your nose warm ... when buying a scarf get a long and WIDE one then when you wrap it around you can pull it up over your nose. If you don't want to walk around like that you can just pull it up occasionally and a few breaths inside the scarf will warm you up.

... and Helen you know I like to rock a hat

I have been wearing fluffy socks with my wellies but can't do socks in bed.

Ah yes Pippa, i do do that but yeah breathing troubles i tend to get haha or i just get fed up of having my scarf in my mouth haha.

My lip piercings get stuck in my scarf-hat - it's quite entertaining when I get into work cos it takes a few mins to detatch it from my face

Now I'm pissed off with the cold; my washing machine has frozen. It's in a stone shed joined on to the house, I popped a load in wandered off and when I went back to unload it everything was dry, the pipe into it blocked!! :x

I've got the thinsulate ones... but they're a cheap £2 pair. I never usually wear gloves in the winter cos, when I was smoking, they're completely impractical so I found it easier to just not wear them. This year is colder though and I don't smoke anymore

My nose doesn't really get cold strangely enough :?

Yeh, you rock the hats I do love them on other people... and I've tried on plenty that I think suit me... I just don't feel comfortable actually wearing them.

I think that only works in wetsuits, but how about you try it and let us know if it works

Do 20 lunges, alternating legs, where on the way down you touch your front ankle w/ both hands and on the way up your hands meet above your head like a jumping jack. It gets your blood/heart pumping and increases circulation.
