The kids moan in the snow, despite being kitted out in thermals and winter snow boots.
My boiler is making a funny noise (gas man is coming this week) and I daren't keep it on overnight anymore as it keeps me awake. As a result the house is chilly for hours and puts me in a bad mood.
My skin is dry despite lashings of thick cream and vaseline on top. My hands are cracking.
And the snow doesn't stick very well so I couldn't make a snowman
. I've never not managed to build one before.
So far we don't have snow forecast for the rest of this week (Hampshire) but it's still sub-zero. Is there any hope of better temperatures next week?
