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 |
