nice one, flashback.I just moved into a gaff with insulation.
Lads, I'm not even taking the piss here, life is amazing when you're not fucking freezing all the time. I've never really been cold continuously for months, and I sort of low key took the piss out of people who complained about the cold. But being cold all the fucking time isn't fun at all.
Like, my body hurt. All the joints I'd broken hurt, my hands hurt, my feet hurt. I'd try to get into the sea every day in March to KICK SHIT UP A NOTCH, and I'd be warm from that for maybe an hour, and back to freezing. Do some work, and then jumping squats and pressups until I felt a bit weak, and be warm for another 30 minutes.
It's amazing, life changingly amazing, to not be in a constant state of cold. The whole time over the last while I've been whining like an annoying fuck about being cold, I've been thinking about how homeless people would have this only worse. I'm going to figure out how to give homeless people shit to keep them warm from now on. I'd thought about "oh yeah, must be shit to be cold if you're homeless" before, but not realised how shit. It's really shit.
So yeah, insulated gaffs make life better.
needless to say we all expect the invite down for our staycations
