It was about -6/-8c this morning, and I felt I needed to something a little more substantial than my battered old mac, so I instead I wore my custom made PHD (Peter Hutchinson Designs) Mustagh down jacket which I had made for my winter 2006 trip to everest base Camp.
Might have over done it a bit because I was actually sweating when I got in to work this morning !!
I checked the specs and recalled that it designed to operate in a 'typical' temp of -25c.......
Won't be needing the three layered gloves yet then......
PS: Rather curiously they've listed my one-line review of the jacket under that of Rich MacLaughlin, Royal Air Force, 820 Naval Air Squadron...... which is a bit random....However I feel I'm in good company.
