reminds me of being freezing cold as a little kid, except we had a flush loo inside by the time i can remember and Mother was soft warm and cuddly when we were little.

This is so wonderful! I'd give anything to write so....tight, not a wasted word....with such economy. But, of course, I'll never be able to do that anymore than I will ever be able to talk that way! But I do so admire it when I see it! And I feel that cold linoleum, always hated that. I am always cold these days.....it often reminds me of those days.

Sounds like old times Pat, but that house was a real chiller. Makes me shiver now I have read this.

Excellent! The word that comes to mind is 'gritty', and I'm looking forward to more...
