Brrrrr!

Dear England,
I have found your cold!

Do you mind if we hold onto it for a little longer? as everyone is looking great in their scarves and the local homeless are well-rugged.

I don't remember the last Sydney 5 degree morning (I am in what is referred to as the coastal strip, despite being a few miles from any seawater.) The only downside is that it leads to being stuck in bed with cats pressed against the legs for warmth -- theirs rather than mine -- and god forbid one should wish to turn over!

Anyway, do enjoy the warmth, and be sure to send it home around August. Though if you would like to keep a bit in reserve for December and January, I am sure that no one here would mind!

Been down in the minuses for the past couple of nights here and it's too bloody cold. I've had to light the fire mid-morning. bah. And then when morning does come the fog settles in around here until next week, when it might lift for half an hour. I've been putting off lighting the fire here today and am rugged up in clothes (duh) and my dressing gown, plus am wrapped up in a sleeping bag of all things, lol. Most of me is toasty warm, except my fingers and face. *am off to light the fire now. Talking about it made me shiver all over*

Oh lambchop! Should I send gloves? I have a spare pair of fingerless gauntlets that I will never wear again: I can seriously post them down to you if you email me an addy! You can type in them, and all!

Lol, no it's fine, you are a love, though. ♥ I forgot to mention that I was wearing a pair of fingerless gloves. *waggles them* I keep wanting to pull them down to cover the tips though haha.

However, I have lit the fire and shall be all toasty warm very shortly

I bought a pair last year, which I loved, but then knit a pair for Mr Brammers, and misjudged the size a bit, so they fit me perfectly, even more so than the bought pair. Since I only have two hands, I have been looking for a home for the others!

Hurrah for the toasty fire! I went for a walk/run and chilled my lungs! Ridiculous!
