How do you get warm?

How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

My study reached another low of 9 degrees today, I'm working quite happily with 2 jumpers... one is a super-heavy eskimo-style thing though. Main issue is my hands, they tend to get chilly even if the rest of me is fine.Originally posted by TimberWolf View PostI'm glad my slanket arrived before the cold set in. 7 degrees C is tolerable.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

I have not felt proper cold like that for nearly 10 years. That has just taken me right back. I remember doing Xmas shopping in the UK and diving in and out of warm shops and then back into the freezing weather to get on the train with all the other mugs. Jeez, I don't know if I could live in the UK again. It's a hard life there.Originally posted by TimberWolf View PostI watched a 3D demo in a local Panasonic shop, which was nice and warm. Somehow 3D TV appears more 3D than real 3D. Walking around in thermals takes a bit of getting used to, because your hands and head can feel frozen while your core temperature can reach the point where you're going to sweat.Comment
