Today had a max of 9 degrees and at present (7pm) it is 3.1 with a real feel of 0.6 (Balmy as the wind has dropped so not feeling as cold as earlier when it was into the minuses).

Rare Mareblu Posted June 19, 2023 #8357 Share Posted June 19, 2023 Your fare sounds delicious, Leigh. Yes, it’s freezing here, but I actually love winter. Huge dumps of snow in the resorts, and more predicted during the week. We couldn’t resist dropping into Garran Bakery, though, using a bitter winter day as the perfect excuse. Tomorrow’s lunch😋. We are blessed to have hydronic underfloor heating throughout our home. It emanates a soft, radiant warmth when you come in from the cold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's interesting Linda re heating, our house is quite small and we have a gas space heater in our living area. Our elder granddaughter said she loves our heater as it warms her up as they have ducted heating. I think it is just that she can see the red of the gas burning and it makes the room feel warm, which it is of course. Whereas the ducted heating doesn't have the same effect. Enjoy your lunch. We have leftover pie from last night. I am just going to put on the slow cooker to cook up some bolagnese sauce.

Our elder granddaughter said she loves our heater as it warms her p as they have ducted I agree with her sentiments. It’s comforting standing in front of a heat source. We do have a stone-flame open gas heater in the living room, which we only switch on if we have guests in there on a winter’s evening. That’s when we remember how soothing an open fire (or gas space heat source in your case) truly is. It’s a ritual that’s part if our genetic memory, I think, to feel the connection between flame and body warmth. It’s interesting though, that our floors only need to be at a minimal setting for comfort. I think that has a lot to do with warm feet, warm bodies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NSWP Posted June 20, 2023 #8362 Share Posted June 20, 2023 (edited) Shock, horror, media is reporting. 40% drop in sale of meat pies, get to it guys, get stuck into to ye olde dogs eyes, 🥧 food of the nation. Cruise ships should have them available every day. Perhaps we need a few Greggs shops here? Edited June 20, 2023 by NSWP 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackduck59 Posted June 22, 2023 #8367 Share Posted June 22, 2023 We're doing our part. Chicken pie for Lynn. Butter Chicken pie for me No dead 'orse, Lynn can't eat tomatoes and I thought curry sauce would go better with the butter chicken. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
