Hot water bottle just woke me up cos sprang a leak. Only by now it's a slightly warm water bottle which is a relief. And it's only on its third year of use. Damn. TGF mattress protector. Would not be fun drying a mattress this time of year.

Augh. If you have a microwave, the heat discs they use to warm pet beds are very useful. LMK if you want a link.

Mattress is OK, thank the gods. Just sheets, pjs and me and this is all easy to fix. Time for a new hwb I guess.

I got one of those chargeable hot water bottles. Basically a giant version of those reusable hand pocket warmers. Gamechanger
