Is it me or does it feel colder today? Last week I was dressed in t-shirts and this week I’m hunting around for my hat and scarf! The good thing about winter though is the wintery celebrations like Halloween, bonfire night and Christmas. How did your Halloween parties go? I’m now looking forward to bonfire night and am planning to hold a party on Thursday. I came across a feature on the Telegraph.co.uk today – 10 of the most dramatic firework clips. This definitely made me think twice about being extra careful this week.

With the cold creeping in on us fast, it’s time to either find my hat, scarf and gloves from last year or treat myself to a new set for winter 2009. With  winter clothing range including gloves, earmuffs, hats and scarves, I think I might be able to stretch to revamping my winter wardrobe. I mean I could get a full set for under £5. That really is a bargain!
