Winter drawers on…

It’s hackneyed I know, I recall daring and provocative civil servants coming out with that risqué phrase laden as it is with innuendo and double entendre. But it does sum up one’s attire.

Damart and British Thermals (not a paid advertisement please – Ed.) are covering the more and least important bits as the temperature hovers around minus eleven.

Animals are all fed and watered, constantly, to the point of cancelling today’s planned trip to Abergavenny for breakfast and last minute shopping. We can’t risk them going without. Both fires and the central heating are flat out – snug though!
