Pretty cold and wintery here at the moment, to the extent that I’ve taken the unusual step of putting a blanket on top of my quilt but have resisted calls to reinstate the electric blanket I used to use years ago. What did we do before we had electric blankets?A man in my ancestral village, for one, used to have his wife lie in his bed for a while before he went to sleep to warm it up for him.
