    On the subject of minus degree temps, I was in a cold room testing jackets maybe two weeks back, they turned the dial down to -25,with my old down travel jacket I could feel myself start to shiver after a couple of minutes. Screenshot_20211205_090501.jpg Screenshot_20211205_090449.jpg

    I prefer the cold too, if pushed to choose. +40 in Saudi was worse than -20 in Chile. It is easier to put more clothes on than to try to take your skin off

    Yeah me too, I've been invited up to Orkney at Christmas but I think it would be too dangerous to go, but up there is probably my only chance of ever seeing it.

    A ciggie box actually tells you "Smoking kills" it's like playing Russian roulette with an automatic, not the smartest of moves :rolleyes:

    They are cheaper, CG are stopping fur trim on their coats at the end of 2022,as a result coyote pelt prices have dropped, fashion is driving CG now rather than practicality. I got Er indoors a nice lightweight one, Christmas gift. Screenshot_20211212_092437.jpg
