I’m that person that’s always cold no matter what - except for those two days of summer when wearing clothes is unbearable - but the rest of the year, you’ll find me in a dressing gown or Oodie dupe under a blanket in fuzzy socks about 90 per cent of the time.

And as a sufferer of Raynaud's syndrome, my fingers and toes can get particularly cold, so it’s important for me to stay wrapped up and toasty.
