Staying indoors and keeping cosy is about the only thing to do. The TV is garbage right enough. I’ve just sat and watched a programme about Top Of The Pops in 1979. A bit of historical perspective on what was going on politically at the time. Between the winter of discontent and Maggie I nearly hit the telly. No voice to shout at it. 😉 Take care, Pete. I hope the pain stays at bay as much as possible. Wire into the pain killers. 🙂 x

Oh…was in the UK till 2009, London I adored for very strange reasons, but we simply could not afford my dream house there. Being a Texas gal,it took a while to get used to little spaces and things, but as soon as the kids came along;phew!
I gave it about seventeen years, but when it was time, it was time. We still got the flat and family there and the children are too British in all their ways,so no escaping for anyone,lol
It will always be home 🙂

I’m curious about the ‘very strange reasons’ for adoring London. I don’t know it well. Been less than a dozen times maybe. I can imagine what the house prices must have been like if you were trying to buy something to accommodate a large family. Seventeen years was a long time then to keep going. But it’s great you’ve still got a place there and family. Not that I imagine you’ll be able to order those mattresses now from the UK. 😉
And it must be a little weird then for everyone feeling and being so British but not being here. Educating the world to our ways now. 🙂 x
