It's been a cold and crisp one - time to add a frost to my weather symbols I think - although it all looked very pretty.
Unfortunately cold meant condensation, with water running off some of our windows, notably the ones in the lounge which aren't double glazed. Until we can afford some new windows we've gone with double-glazing film - plastic sheeting stretched across the window and taped in place, and then heated with a hair dryer to taughten it.
It's a bit fiddly but seems to work really well - if you look carefully you can see the water running down the window pane on the left, while the film has insulated the one on the right. At £6.99 for four windows it's a darn site cheaper than double-glazing, although it only lasts one winter obviously.
Doesn't look as odd as you'd think either!
