Sounds like mosquitos.

To cold for mozzies ATM.

Not completely. As the local authority head biologist in Leiden found,
mosquitoes can breed in your home. In his case they bred in water in a plant
pot.

I occasionally get what I take to be mosquito at all time of the year,
certainly in winter though perhaps not when it's quite as cold as this.
I have often had them when I've only been in the house and I've
definitely seen the occasional mosquito indoors. It comes from living in
the Fens perhaps. They're quite likely to bite ankles too. From what I
remember mosquito bites tend to be whitish where they're hard and
raised, and red in the surrounding sore area.
