Preparing for winter

[B00]

I know i know, it's still only July, but is anyone else starting to think about the long old winter ahead and starting to prepare for it?

I was caught out last year, and spent ruddy months shivering, so i'm determined not to be the same this year.

I bought a sausage dog thingy this morning from Oxfam (£1.99- bargain!), for bottom of my front door as the wind howls through that, im also on the look out for lined curtains to back the front door with (howling wind again).

I'm also scouting Ebay for thermal vests for me and Mini Boo, Mr Boo refuses to wear them (silly sod can freeze to death then) and im also nosying round for thermal fleecy throws for the sofa.

So.....anyone else preparing? Is it too soon for anyone else to do it yet? and am I incredibly sad?

Well not winter, but Christmas. I have bought the odd present and stick a post it note on it saying who it is for, or else I have forgotten. It's always good to be one step ahead Boo. Good for you.
