  11. Its not the cold that you have to worry about its the windchill factor

    Im sure you will all be wrapped up warm and sat round a fire so no problems with hypothermia
    Keep an eye on everyone though and dont let anyone sleep underneath a bus because there as *******ed as i can get

    We had a bloke i worked with have a fit because he down a pint in one that had been sat in the freezer untill not just frozen

    It was a summers day and it was a prank after his leaving speech he could have died if im honest

    The body does strange things at temperature extremes and very different things if the extreme is induced gradually

    For those of you without propex etc and you feel the cold if you can spare the cash you wont be cold in a green maggott
    They are rated to -30 deg c when lying on top of a closed cell foam mat on the floor
    You wont be cold in a bus in one of these

  12. I would vote for +6 but it's not on the poll. at what time is this supposed to be measured?
     
  13. It's what will be the coldest over the whole weekend - it will be measured by Horts who is not sleeping from when we get there till when we leave ...

    Well I was right about Three Degrees. It was that when I left Croydon 'topless' but went to heady heights to 9 by the time I got there.
