• I've heard rumours that some people actually like the cold (if you're in that group, don't worry - I know a good psychiatrist or two), but I really can't be doing with it.  I have no built-in insulation, and I regard anything below 20 Celsius as life-threatening.
• This episode must have been written in one of those really nice years where it actually starts feeling warmish in March - unlike 2008 or 2009, where it stayed dismal up to about July.
