BLIMEY! IT'S COLD! 27F. Proper cold. I wish I had my Wisconsin parka with the orange lining and fur trim hood. (Not that you can't find a replica here but you'd pay through the nose for it (what does that even mean 'through the nose'?). We've just been hit with a massive heating bill that's six times more than normal and we think it's because our boiler hasn't been working properly the last month (nor our shower) but the estate agents keep saying they're waiting for the landlord to get back to them. Where does that leave us? Paying through the nose, again!!!
Yesterday we went to see Jaime Nanci and the Blue Boys in a tiny village quite near us with one church and one pub (I don't even think they have their own post office). The frontman is an Irish friend of mine whom I know from living in Galway and it was pure chance that thay ended up playing obscurely so near us. It was a great gig; they are brilliant (I recommend Youtubing them)! It was Eliette's first you gig, you know, though she didn't seem all that bothered.
Must feel just like home. We are to reach 37 today.
Have yourself a yummy HOT chocolate!!!
