Following on from the age related poll , is it an age thing to really dread the onset of winter it never used to bother me but now i hate it more and more every year , i have even started wearing a vest

Southern softy! Not even cold yet,dark nights?thats why we have big illuminators!

Had my thermal top on yesterday

Working on roofs in all weathers, for over 40 years has taken it's toll. I do find that I feel the cold more nowadays.

Don't believe all of the "you'll be used to the cold then" bollocks

sounds like you need to turn the heater up in the cab mate and carry a bigger thermos

I don't mind the cold too much, its all the feckin rain that gets me goat

Cold I can tolerate provided I go for a walk for a bit and then warm enough. Might be a bit difficult to do on a roof mind.
Rain. I hate, makes me wet and cold and difficult to shoot.

In saying that I am well versed in things that make me warm cos if I have to sit in the cold I do feel it.
But I don't need a vest. Cos I have a woodburner. Whoohoo

What .............you've got a wood burner on your rifle ....................cool, I want one of those

The cold I can deal with (DeerHunter Rusky jacket, sometimes too hot), but its the rain which gets on my tits.

Usually Monday-Friday = dry weather, Saturday night (shooting night) = torrential rain!

You could always try carrying around a few of the ultra cheap Chinese lithium batteries, a quick short circuit and instant warmth

thats a great idea. you could get one of them battery charging bags then when its cold shove a nail through the battery and enjoy the warmth in perfect safety
