Hi Greg, my middle son has fixed the cold problem. He sleeps in a swag
fitted with an electric blanket run from his 4x4 auxiliary battery via an
inverter. Works beautifully.

Subject: sleeping bag advise
Gooday all
While birding at Round Hill NR recently I learnt two things. One, when
crashing through and climbing under and over the endless thick mallee scrub
with bruised shins, scratched face and collar scooping up endless handfuls
of sticks into my shirt, just stop, back off and follow the wife, she always
finds the easy way. Two, never ever believe a two hundred dollar sleeping
bag rated at so-called -7 degrees will keep you warm even if you wear thick
socks, long undies, trousers, T shirt, flanelette shirt, two jumpers, a
scarf, beanie and wool gloves in the bag at the same time. We also had air
matresses and extra blankets and quilts.
So, can someone please suggest a not too expensive but warm sleeping bag
when temperatures are about and just below zero, or, how do others go about
keeping warm in such conditions.
Thanks
Greg Little
