The Chill Factor

What’s this? Leaves on the pavement rather than on their branches? Jumpers on my back rather than at the bottom of my cupboard? And why can’t I breathe through my nose anymore?!

Face it. Winter is firmly here; but instead of letting it get you down and contemplate hibernation, try and remember just how much you love this season. Think back to those heady days of summer when you’re choked, sweating buckets on the bus, things sticking to you and the smell of too many hot bodies. Days like that you pray for winter with its cold, fresh air to sweep into view. Let’s celebrate the season rather than get depressed about it and a good first step is to turn to page 6 and read all about our Wonders of Winter.

Some of the treats buried in there were too good to pass up so we’ve also explored in detail some of our other favourite things about winter, like socks! (page 20), rugby (page 45), Café Chocolat (page 54) and Bonfire Night (page 14)! That should be more than enough to keep you content throughout November, but if you’re still pining, just remember the X word is only just around the corner…
