My wife can’t believe it! The cold calls for wool, wool and more wool.’
He also revealed that he would be meeting with A Place In The Sun host Jasmine Harman.
Jonnie said: “It’s also rare that @jasmineharman and I are there on a Sunday, so come by and we hope to see you there.”
It comes after Jonnie said he plans to record video messages so he can talk to his loving wife and three children after her death.
He hosted a segment on digital legacy on the BBC’s Morning Live earlier this month and left hosts Rav Wilding and Kimberley Walsh with “goosebumps”.
The Escape To The Country host said he is “taking advantage of every opportunity” to give his wife Jessica, 40, and sons Rex, three, and twins Rafa and Cormac, two, a bright future when he is no longer this one here.
After watching a segment about how a woman battling stage 4 bowel cancer records a short video each day for loved ones to watch when she’s gone, Jonnie said he planned to do the same.
‘It’s amazing to think that I would also be able to talk to my wife and children after I pass away. My diagnosis has taken a lot from me, but it has given me the ability to prepare.
‘The only way to ensure your digital legacy is the way you like it is to take control now. And I’m going to take every opportunity to do that for the people I love.’
The show went on to provide information on ways to prepare a ‘digital legacy will’ so you can tell your loved ones what you want to happen with your social media pages.
A digital legacy is an individual’s online interactions, spanning everything from social media platforms to emails.
It is something that is often left out of estate plans, since they are not considered tangible assets. However, a family cannot legally access the accounts, which is a problem if they need to obtain information.
A digital legacy is also important to specify the actions you want to perform, for example, if a Facebook page is deleted or remembered.

Reflecting on his own actions thus far, Jonnie said: “I have a lifetime of memories and although over the years many have been stored online and I have been getting my affairs in order ever since my diagnosis two years ago. Half a year ago, I haven’t given much thought to my digital legacy.
“I have posted thousands of photos and digital images online, but when I die I have no idea what will happen to those images.”
The host Rav said in the studio: ‘I have goosebumps. Such a powerful movie from Jonnie. I think that film is a real reminder of all the practical things you can do.’
Kimberley said: ‘It’s heartbreaking. I believe that creating special memories with your loved ones can be as simple as sitting down for a Sunday roast.
