How to Get Cosy
Locate a sleeping pet and sit close by –
ensure your feet are warm in woolly socks.
The rain may fall but you’ll be snug and dry.
Locate a sleeping pet and sit close by.
I often find it helps to eat some pie
and listening to the ticking of a clock.
Locate a sleeping pet and sit close by,
ensure your feet are warm in woolly socks.
ensure your feet are warm in woolly socks.
The rain may fall but you’ll be snug and dry.
Locate a sleeping pet and sit close by.
I often find it helps to eat some pie
and listening to the ticking of a clock.
Locate a sleeping pet and sit close by,
ensure your feet are warm in woolly socks.
