Weather

This is especially to my South African friends and relatives. After complaining for years about the cold in SA, the lack of central heating, indeed of any heating...I beg forgiveness. Mea culpa, Mea culpa, Mea culpa.
(Roughly from church latin, "I'm an idiot, I'm and idiot, I'm an idiot.")
It has been so cold here that we wear outdoor clothes indoors. Well some of us do. John bundles in an undershirt, shirt, polar tec jacket, fleece lined jacket and he wears fingerless gloves. I, the most notorious of the cold tolerant wear an undershirt and a sweater. Worse, I wear shoes and socks.
The house is replete with windows and doors, all of which date from the later 1900's. The temperature is well below zero farinheit most nights. It has snowed rather a lot.
In conclusion I think we'd better replace the furnace and buy heavily lined curtains.
