I wear shorts all year, I had a rather rude lady making some kind of pointed comment when she saw me in Sainsbury's in January wearing shorts, I wasn't expecting it and she deserved a rather better put-down from me than she got, judgemental nosy cow that I decided she was, but even in this time of elevated bills my house is warm enough in the winter. I will admit, though, that I never wore shorts to work and part of my de-stressing from getting home from work was to ditch the long trousers in favour of shorts.
