Glad you found somewhere to live temporarily while your new home is ready. Glad you also have still got your unique sense of humour :thumbup:

Oh yeah, just you wait till you have been here a few months, 20 degs will seem bloody cold to you too. I have been here since Nov and have just bought a heater and put the electric blanket on the bed LOL

The only time I take them off is to go to bed, or in polite company (like yesterday LOL) In fact, I may have to go and get another pair :o

It's a shame you cant get them with steel toecaps or I could wear them at work :rofl:
