Hey , I recognize those outfits - and the spinning wheel is as impressive as it is vintage.

Mrs Bloke is every bit as charming in person as is intimated here.

Mr Bloke, well, ....... :tuba: 8)

As to the unusual cold spell we are experiencing, I'm having a difficult time adapting to it. That, combined with the early darkness (thank you, Standard time), and the mention of Christmas getting earlier every year, is just too God-d@mned depressing.

And the shortest day of the year is still yet over a month away....... :cry:

There are other factors that affect how it feels outside aside from the temperature - wind, humidity and sun/clouds. Here in the north Austin area, it gets breezy a lot. That’s why we can sit outside in August (in the shade) when it’s 100 degrees out. There’s a breeze and low humidity. In NY, if temps reached the upper 90’s, it was humid and you walked around outside wet.

The weather guy down here says “real feels” for heat index and wind chill. :roll:

I always said the females with engineering ability ended up making clothing, or quilting, or similar.
