Wow! Autumn!
Oct. 17th, 2009 08:01 pmWe've had odd sort of temperature fluctuations recently. I've been trying to put the heating on for just a little bit in the morning to ease J. out of his bed (teenager getting up into cold room = teenager still under quilt until violently removed). But as soon as it's gone on, we've all been wandering around pulling out our collars with a single forefinger and making "Phew!" noises. Too hot. Heating goes back off, and J. is convinced that it's Not That Cold Really, and just gets on with the job in hand.
Today though, Tim was playing outside at the Cathedral Farmer's Market and decided that it was the first outdoor gig of the season to merit a woolly coat and a cap. Kind of amused to drop Tim off at Liam(UTMP)'s house to find that he'd had the self-same thought.
I've no idea what the temperature is outside at the moment (I packed my thermometer. Quelle suprise, eh?), but it's definitely nippy. I've put the heating on low and I'm rather glad of it in the absence of wood for the log burner. Brrr!
I'm off to do some knitting and watch some TV whilst snuggled under a blanket now. Hurrah!
P.s. After some thoughts about money, stuff and what hobbies we are likely to have time for in the forseeable future, we are having serious thoughts about selling on much of our serious re-enactment stuff. If you (or somebody you know) might be interested in a huge medieval tent, 2 oak pack-down double beds, a virtually brand new Ivor Williams trailer and lots of handmade medieval furniture, please let me know.
