She thinks it is better to wear all her wardrobe instead including sexy socks

Cold enough to freeze the Condensate pipe from my boiler today .Came back to the house at 11ish this morning to feel the house ice cold and the boiler flashing EA !!! Which meant it would not reset until I had defrosted the waste pipe outside .

The roads are trecherous thats for sure, up here in the Rochdale area .Like sheet ice everywhere .

I work outside and noticed the temp was -6.5° this morning on one of the vans I was servicing. Don't really notice the cold though (with the right thermal lined vapour suit)

Got to do a clutch tomorrow so that could be a pain, did one friday and it snowed pretty much non stop while doing it.
