    Freezing cold
    Trying to get pissed so that I may fall to sleep
    Didn't get pissed enough
    Got frozen even though I was trying to walk around with Dodger's
    mobile disco going
    Stopped trying to talk to people as I was so cold
    Went to tent at 2 or 3am-ish
    Came back out
    Had a wee at 03:30ish over the road
    Managed to get to sleep at about 4am
    Awoke to my own snoring at 5am
    05:05 got up and had a walk around and went to loo again (why didn't
    anyone tell me the members entrance door was unlocked?!) and went back
    into tent to shiver a bit more, even though fully clothed and with
    gloves on
    06:00 got up again to escape the Dawn Chorus of farting and had a sit
    down until someone else got up

    Best experience of my life*, and I didn't even pull.

    *May not be strictly true

    The fact that you were fully clothed is probably the reason that you
    were freezing.

    TBH I've never fully understood the workings behind it myself. I do
    however know that the less clothes worn inside a sleeping bag the
    warmer you will be.

    This is indeed true, I tend to strip down to me thermals come andy and teddy
    time at *OSM's, and don't seem to suffer too much with the cold.

    At this year's BOSM I slept with a blanket over my head, which much reduced
    the morning snotfest I seem to have experience on previous occasions.

    I feel some kind of gas based heating appliance may be on the cards for
    EOSM, also, the Zephyr Zone mob are planning some kind of overnighter at a
    Triumph rally in Newbury in July which I may attend.

    Ahh, you see, even though I had a seven foot or something sleeping
    bag, I couldn't quite fit in it even without clothing.

    Heh, it was all worthwhile.

    The sight of you lobbing all your new gear in the dumpster whilst the rest
    of us were carefully packing away Milletts finest was priceless.

    Oh holy shit....

    I "made" my Mother re-arrange her wedding date to the 21st of August. She
    was going to get married in September and I said I didn't want to miss
    the EOSM so she changed the date. [1]

    [1] Don't know why she's got to get married anyway, she'd be better off
    continuing living with him "over the brush" and I doubt she's pregnant at
    her age... <grumble chunner sulk>

    I donated it to The Village/Wavey Davey. IIRC the pub still have it
    tucked away somewhere.

    It was still highly amusing, so thanks for that.

    Because your body heat warms the air between you and the bag and the
    insulation in the bag keeps the heat in.

    With loads of clothes the bag will be a tighter fit and your clothes
    will touch it. You don't get the warm air gap then.

    Think of it like the walls of a building with an air gap in.

    Thanks for the explanation.
    Is that like the walls of a building, curtains, central heating, bed
    and running water on tap?

  16. Well, you had the BOSM in Spring, so why not just have the EOSM in Winter?

    Even better, if said individual *starts* a thread, you miss the whole
    thing.

    Even I have better things to do than watch the inevitable cripple
    fights which develop in these situations.
    Cheeky scamp. It's good vfm, though.

    I do get the "advantage" of reading via Mailgate whilst at "work". It
    saves me having to trawl through 200 - "you're a ****" - "no I'm not"
    posts every evening.
    I thought Agent only filtered *after* downloading.
    I might give it a go.
