Blue with cold that is! I've put my heating on again today, I just can't get warm. I know we've had bad summers before, but I don't remember one this cold.
It has stopped raining for a while, but the sky here is black and menacing :roll: and the wind with no sun to warm it through, is quite chilly :(
What's it like where you are, and if it's warm, do you want a lodger? :wink:

    OK it looks like the party's at mine. It's not brilliant but I seem to remember brilliant last occurred shortly before Easter so I won't be holding out for it. I'm inside in shirt sleeves with all doors open. If we take the wine bottle out later I'll probably need a sweatshirt but, hey, these sacrifices sometimes have to be made. I take it yours is a mulled wine then, Numpty? How about you, fowls?
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

    Right Sticky, I'm just packing. I won't bring my bikini as it doesn't sound that hot, but shorts and cut-offs might get an airing.
    No need to mull the wine, I'll drink it as it comes. :)
    I've got some nice cider which I brought back from France if you fancy it :wink:

    Dry cider?

    Go steady with the shorts and cut offs. Mr SW's on blood pressure tablets.

    No need to worry about Mr SW's blood pressure, unless laughing raises it :lol:

    I think laughing's supposed to be good for it. OK, you two can have a mutual laugh -in (He's currently in his tatty gardening gear) while fowls and I get stuck into the booze.

    Can do lager, mig. Not exactly sunny here now, Val, but no fires needed. Pour yourself a glass of whatever you fancy.
