That's gonna be us next week.

Just been looking at the weather forecast and it look's GRIMMM.

I am so glad I put that immersion heater in now, they're talking about -8 and snow!

I am deffo having a go on the lottery this weekend, and if no luck I'm gonna have to man up, wrap up, and crack on.

You wont regret it, its like an insurance policy against frost.

Be sure to go round all your connections in the van and tighten up, warm water can get through things cold cant.

No, not really...

We get cold weather every year, I never really understand what all the fuss is about.
