I was snug and warm in my winter duvet last night.. It is staying on..
Even though the weatherman says it is going to get warmer over the week..
Don't ask me.. I know nuffink..

Think I might do a bit of overseeding on my lawn.  Still warm enough, hopefully.

I dreaded this thread, thought it was referring to You Know What Lights,...TOO EARLY!!

Now you're all huddled in your Winter duvets etc it's got sunny and warm again!! 🌞

Now then Scrumps -  it was sheet changing day today,  so I got all the bedding off and the clean ones out of the airing cupboard,  then decided I would do like you did,  and put my winter duvet on while I was at it.

Now wait for it . . . . .   I not only changed the duvet,  I changed the mattress protector,  and then got carried away and even turned the mattress around and over too.

So I have now turned the mattress, put a new protector on,  changed the sheets, and put my winter duvet on too.     Beat that!    

I don't do things by half, do I.    :grin:

It takes two people to turn my mattress..
I can change the bedding myself..

I can do mine,  but I can't say it's easy,  it is a struggle.   

Just turning it round, head to toe, is not so bad,  but turning it right over is not easy.
I have to sort of 'balance'  it on its side and hold onto the handles along the sides,  then I can manage.  
I don't do it as frequently as the manufacturers advise though,  I only do it once or twice a year.
