Everything was toasty except my head so I ended up completely immersed in my bed cave for the night. But I don't think anyone could comprehend Sicily being that cold. You're on the Mediterranean, for heaven's sake! brrrrrrLeslie:https://www.blogger.com/profile/11964698251137788839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26674022.post-40775449299411062312008-02-20T01:12:00.000+01:002008-02-20T01:12:00.000+01:00Hi, Crushed.

Had the plugs changed and everything when we arrived but I am afraid to switch it on because I've no idea how much electricity of our 3 kw it would take. Besides, I don't think it would be very effective in a flat with such an "open" layout.Welshcakes Limoncellohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17209759237794290941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26674022.post-33790075168759808302008-02-19T22:23:00.000+01:002008-02-19T22:23:00.000+01:00Hi, jmb.

The difference, of course, is that in Britain we have carpets and reliable heating which we can leave on 24/7! Hi, WW. I did partake of the limoncello [in bed - the best way] but forgot about the vodka, of which I have a half bottle left! Thanks, kissa. I hope so. Many thanks, Anne. I've just been reading that it's the coldest Feb in ages in Britain. It certainly is here! Neighbour lady seems nice. Hi, Ellee. Yes, I was glad of the office bombola! Thank you, James. I'll stop sulking now! We like the water analogy and you are being very diplomatic! xxxxWelshcakes Limoncellohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17209759237794290941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26674022.post-69620699307656852232008-02-19T22:07:00.000+01:002008-02-19T22:07:00.000+01:00Losing the heating is just the worst...Losing the heating is just the worst...Richard Havershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309594787689405779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26674022.post-36876168815365550812008-02-19T21:34:00.000+01:002008-02-19T21:34:00.000+01:00Didn't they invent aquaducts in Italy?Things reall...Didn't they invent aquaducts in Italy?<BR/><BR/>Things really don't seem to have progressed much.<BR/><BR/>We got flakes of snow today- not enough and too late to stay at home and pretend to be snowed in.Crushedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02479751225625007588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26674022.post-43735723703877642702008-02-19T19:32:00.000+01:002008-02-19T19:32:00.000+01:00Thank goodness for that, birthday girl.
