They’ve been saying that this is going to be a bad winter. It’s already feels cold enough.

They've been saying its going to be the worst winter in x years for about 5 years now
Hasn't happened yet!

I think this is going to be a cold winter. I’m struggling with it being cold. I’m like an old woman!

Haha!
Its been less cold this week though

Not here it isn’t. :(
Maybe I should move away to somewhere warmer. I just need to find that thing called money to do so!

But you'd miss your sister though

That’s true. I’ll just have to wear more layers and deal with it. Might get my hot water bottles out.

Where would you most like to live, I spent 3 months in Spain in 1996 working as a translator, possibly the best 3 months of my life, could've stayed longer but got really homesick.

Where I live its been quite mild

I like Spain
Used to go there every summer and some half terms.
The fam have a villa out there so they go a lot still

I don’t know where I’d like to live. I love living in Glasgow, and I like the area I’m in, but I wouldn’t mind somewhere a bit warmer. Not too hot though. I’m rubbish in hot weather too. No pleasing me!

That's really nice, the place I stayed was a city called La Coruna in the North West of Spain, been back there twice, been to a city called Santander in the North-East of Spain a few times on the ferry - 20 hours - but south of Spain's probably different, loads of ex-pats maybe.

That sounds lovely.
Our villa is in the province of Alicante.
Lovely place in the mountains with a little village at the bottom of the mountain. Its not touristy at all which is nice.

Im not good in hot weather either Lorraine!
We had a pool at the villa which is how i coped!

That sounds nice going to Spain regularly. I’ve never been before.

I’ve just filled my hot water bottles, so hopefully I’ll heat up soon.

I'm quite lucky, because the ferry port's about 2 miles away from me, with ferries going to France & Spain, I'll probably go to France next time for a bit, shorter ferry journey, got too sea-sick on my last visit to Spain.

The ferry to Spain is huge, I see all these cars waiting to get onto the ferry, that's the only way people can take their cars to Spain, & when I get to Spain I see them all drive off.

I’ve been to the north of France. It’s lovely. I was in jersey and we took a day trip to France.

It's getting late, really need to go downstairs & have dinner, bye.

Enjoy your dinner.

France is lovely also!
When we were younger, we'd get the ferry to france and then drive through france to spain, stopping over to camp in various places along the way.
I miss our family holidays.

Enioy your dinner!

That sounds lovely Beckie. We never had many family holidays, although we are doing it now. I’m going to Amsterdam next year with my sister, Dad and uncle. I’m also going to Oban in March with my sister, so I’m lucky.

That sounds cool!
Amsterdam looks like a lovely place
