Just a tip as regards winter clothing:
Try to buy outer garments (jumpers/cardigans etc) made from WOOL rather than man-made fibres like Acrilan. They are so much warmer. Man-made fibres are just CHEAP.
I've noticed the difference from when we were kids and always wore clothes made from cotton or wool. We were much cosier, although our clothes needed a bit more care. Well worth it.![]()
