We slept out (bedded down, if you will). Any hopes it would be warmer in March were swiftly dashed. I woke Ed up at 5am with my snoring. I fell off that wheelbarrow I’m sat on twice. Four layers didn’t keep the cold out. Donations for The Foxton are still open.

Thanks to Blog Preston readers who have donated more than £1,000 towards the Big PNE Sleep Out total! #pnesleepout justgiving.com/page/blog-pres…
