Winter's Great

Make sure you wear Valenki boots made from wool felt and put on lots of woollen clothes. You need good thick gloves and protect your neck with a warm scarf. Long socks too. Above all, eat a good breakfast before you go out. I usually have fried potatoes cooked in lard and a mug of lemon tea with three sugars.
