He allus called me nesh cos he'd wear his t shirt 365 days a year with the addition of a fleece when he went to work on nights or winter months .... to the pub would be shirt sleeves most of the year, gloves only ever came out for the bike or snowball fights where as I'd wear a t shirt and sweater (or 2)...... fleece, gloves, scarf and hat and complain that my finger ends or toes were going to fall off. Basically someone who feels or doesn't like the cold. Quote

Yes, but I've been otherwise engaged trying to plan for a new venture (seeing as my existing one has been stuffed by COVID). Trying to keep an eye on what's going on, though, and thanks for asking Edited January 22, 2021 by learningtofly 3 Quote
