Every time I woke up in the night I could hear torrential rain, but by the time I got up this morning it was dry and sunny. Freezing cold, but dry and sunny! The children will have fun in the garden with all the collected rain water

Maza, it was so cold first thing this morning that I put the heating on! Only for half an hour, but it was long enough to take the chill away and to stop my family from moaning when they got up. I felt a bit defeated as I normally try to hold out for longer, but I soon got over that when I got out of the shower and didn’t freeze

Has everyone been watching Bake Off? Although I’ve watched it, I haven’t quite got into it yet for some reason. I’ll watch it again tonight, but it’s more from habit than enjoyment at the moment. Is anyone watching anything else good? I watched Ridley Road (I think that’s what it was called) on Sunday night but again, didn’t really get into it.

Enjoy your days everyone. Stay warm
