Daphne's Hot Stuff In Bed

The new hot water bottles have arrived. They are brown and furry and lovely and warm.

Interestingly, as soon as the Interesting Hot Water Bottle Parcel arrived, the temperature soared from below 32 degrees Fahrenheit to - today - a near-tropical 50 degrees, or 11 degrees if you're a new-fangled Centigrade-preferrer.

Clearly there's a law of physics operating here - - and it is Murphy's Law. Buy a hot water bottle and the temperature shoots up.

Come on folks, help me with this. Rush out to the shops and stock up on electric fires, and oil-filled radiators, and electric blankets, and duvets with a tog rating of about 25, and triple glazing. Then we might - just might - stand a chance of having a decent summer.

YP, are you making some kind of rude remark about dear Daphne's diameter? Because even though I don't know her I think her diameter is just fine.

Thank you, everyone! Two bottles, YP, because two can warm up two bits of me at once (I rotate them from bit to bit). RWP - - thank you! Yes, my diameter is not large enough to NEED two hot water bottles - - but hey, you've got to have some luxury in life!
