What's that Albert Camus quote? "In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer." I take that quote a little further, and fling myself further (ie. Bonaire, tomorrow!). I live in long johns and a toque from the end of September to May. However, I do think it's good to feel shivery and hear your stomach growl. It makes you hungry for everything. I used to work at a hydrotherapy-centric spa with a waters circuit. The nine degree cold plunge turned my veins into spaghettini. It's a rush. My ideal job is in a greenhouse in July, never a beer store or anywhere with a walk-in freezer.

Aaah, when the sun is out, my greenhouse is much warmer than the house, a lovely place to be. 😃👍

Brilliant - made me laugh! I had the opposite problem with our boiler when it wouldn't turn off during a heatwave. 😰

Omg! That’s probably worse as it’s costing you money too! 😳

We used to dream of having an electric radiator but it would have invalidated the insurance, and cost money. 😂 🥶
